Episode 26: Of Plums and Peach Trees (Holidays)


Listen Later

This week Jun and Daniel kick off 2024 with a discussion about how Koreans celebrate the New Year. Listen in as our hosts compare new year’s traditions in Korea and America. Do Koreans celebrate January 1st differently than Lunar New Year? Do Koreans make New Year’s resolutions? Who usually plays hosts in Korea for family gatherings? When do you make the transition from receiving money to giving money for New Year’s? What are some of the lesser known traditional games and activities Koreans do on Lunar New Year? What bird is the symbol for Lunar New Year?

If you're interested in any of these questions, tune in to hear Daniel and Jun discuss all this and more! Also in this episode, Daniel and Jun discuss blood types, zodiac signs, and share their resolutions for the coming year. Additionally, Jun reveals some exciting personal updates, while Daniel does a live reaction to having his first traditional Korean fortune read.
