Koreans wear ritual clothing to honor beloved ancestors and reconnect with relatives during family celebrations. Millions will travel by train, bus and plane to their hometowns.
Some of the most popular gifts are store gift cards and cash, as well as health products, ginseng, honey and toiletries. Many look forward to receiving presents of hangwa, traditional sweets and cookies, Korean beef and seafood and fruit.
During Lunar New Year, families may play yutnori, a traditional board game. Players move markers around a game board based on counting up-facing sticks which are thrown. The one who first successfully navigates around the board is the winner!
