Chuseok in South Korea
韓國的秋夕節

Falling on the same date as the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival, Chuseok is a big deal; hands down the most celebrated holiday on Korea’s calendar. For outsiders, it’s sometimes difficult to grasp the significance of this three-day event, as it is extremely family-oriented. If you have an in with a kind Korean family, this would be a great opportunity for an in depth look at Confucianism in action.
韓國的秋夕節是個大日子，正好與中國的中秋節在同一天；它毫無疑問是韓國最盛大的節日。由于該節日完全以家庭為單位慶祝，因此外來者很難領會到這個為期三天的節日的重要性。你若能與一個和善的韓國家庭同住，這幾天將是深入觀察儒家做派的絕佳機會。
