Lunar New Year Korean Style

[ChaeYeonHyori2ne1VNT]

yeah koreans, china, thailand, vietnam and other asian countries celebrated lunar new year this february 3 through february 6. hope that helps. am not korean but a hardcore fan of CHAE YEON nuna.

I have a simple question. Does Korea celebrate new year like American (January 1st Solar calendar) or like Chinese new year (December 30-January 1 in Lunar)? From what I know is Chinese and Vietnamese are celebrating on the same day/date in Lunar. But I don't know about Korean.

May someone please answer my question? Thank you so much!

[meandmyselfandi2]

@vickvicki yeah they celebrate both but they probably pay more attention to the lunar new year

[tokee1234567]

@vickvicki they do both. the lunar new year (the chinese one as you can say) is more celebrated. Jan 1st is a day where every Koreans gain +1 to their age (Korea has a different age system than the rest of the world) so people just celebrate that one day.

lol

i used to play hatoe or what ever you call it

i played hatoe with my grandma every night xD

it was a fun game

i always won for some reason

[ffff214]

it is almost what Chinese do during their lunar new year. The two share a lot.

[consoleman09]

@ffff214 it's practically share by all East Asian, nothing new. Hence Koreans never says "Chinese new year", we say Lunar new Year celebration, you'll notice there is no lion dance & firecrackers from Koreans.

[ffff214]

@consoleman09 Chinese also never say Chinese New Year. We just say New Year or Lunar New Year. Across China there are minor differences in ways people of different regions celebrate the New Year. But they share a lot. My Korean friend, a smart and accomplished Korean lawyer,whose father is a Korean scholar in Korean history, told me that basically Korea's history until 100 years ago is just like a regional Chinese history. And In the US, 95% East Asian study Center of elite uni is fromChina.

@consoleman09 Shut the fuck up, China=/=han chinese! Koreans were slaves of China throughout the history

[BATURUSHA]

@consoleman09 Im from hongkong? LOl wtf ! Firstly I am not from hongkong or southeastasia,my hometown is located in northern part of Manchuria which is northern than all the eastasian regions in China,secondly,nowadays Han only made up about 9/10 of the China population,and many of them are not pure hans but mixed,I have some han chinese friends with persian/arabian muslim and xianbei and even filipino-muslim as their fatherline ancetral roots due to migration in history

[BATURUSHA]

Lol how can a hongkonger be so fluent in mandarin and simplified chinese but unable to understand cantonese??just ask any of my hongkong friends they know that im from NortheastChina and studying overseas currently. Manju ur foot! I have known u on utube since 2 years ago,ur old acct was suspended right?You are just a typical dirty korean liar with inferiority complex towards china,I once saw u using fake accounts to pretend to be japanese to make comments,yar,now you are a Jurchen,cool!

[BATURUSHA]

@consoleman09 Lol stupid kimchiman,I am not even in hongkong,korean pure race? don make me laugh,the genetic structure shows that the koreans were originally the fucking negritos and southeastasians later got mixed with some northeastasian tribes from northern china

[BATURUSHA]

r u retarded??! how many times do u want me to say that I am NOT in Hongkong?!! give me the fucking source plz,i have scanned through most of the research done by well known asian geneticists such as jinli,xue,wenbo and western geneticist like hammer,non of them claims such things.Lol KImchiman fabricating as usual^^ Go and read some descendant anthropology/genetic research plz! Korians are not just physically closer to southeastasians than other northern populations but also genetically (O2b)

[BATURUSHA]

@consoleman09 koreans are grouped as negritos and africans^^ so fucking true,with wide short noses and tall foreheads+short faces,your facial indexes are so fucking aseembled with negritos

[tokee1234567]

Yoot....I miss that game. I have a smaller version of it at home. : )

[gong422]

Most traditional oriental Asians have great diet .. natural herbs, vegetables and fruits and grains...

I think western people are now trying to stay away from eating to much meat steaks, pork chops, chickens and beef.

Korean food is really delicious and good for health too.

[jadeof1004s]

Haha. I'm sorry but they failed to menion alot of those traditions aren't really kept as strictly, and some are even dropped -especially in the US.

There were also some inaccuracies.

[AnhKiaa]

Asians rule. We dont commit violence

[dwkfym]

I beg to differ!!!!

[kangmeezy]

dwkfym's right. there are a lot of angry asians out there.
