Seollal (Korean Lunar New Year)

Friday, January 31st is known in Korea as Seollal (sounds like Solar.) It is the Korean New Year and school will be closed Thursday January 30th and Friday to observe this holiday. This means we have a 4 day weekend. The tradition is to go visit your grandparents, or just family, and to eat together and play yut nori. Apparently it is such a big holiday that you should not travel on the roads on Friday or Saturday.

Sarah, Rin and I are all going to Seoul Thursday and Friday to enjoy the break.

Also, Episode #10 Itaewon Land Part 2 will be up on Friday, January 31st.
