We wish you Happy Holidays
Chestnuts roasting on an open fire, Jack Frost nipping at your nose, Yuletide carols sung by a choir and folks in Korea dressed like Eskimos. Brightly lighted trees have sprouted up all over the country. The holiday spectacle has put a special glow on the cities at night and a smile on the faces of the passers-by. Now it’s Christmas Eve, and children are rubbing their hands ― just one more night until they get their hands on their presents. Here is a glimpse of what you’ll find in Korea, steeped as it is in season’s greetings.-----------------------------------------------------------------
