What are the similarities between South Korea and China in celebrating the Spring Festival? What is the difference?

1, Koreans pay attention to going home to visit relatives before 30. Every year before New Year's Eve, there will be scenes of thousands of troops returning home. Seoul, which was once lively, suddenly quieted down; Usually, wedding hotels are also posted with "closed" signs, and some are also posted with "opening" notices.

Koreans are very particular about making their own New Year's Eve dinner and eating it at home. They believe that the Spring Festival is an important activity to pay homage to ancestors and inherit filial piety. Eating a reunion dinner on New Year's Eve is not only rare, but also symbolizes the prosperity of the family. Even restaurant owners say that since everyone goes home for the New Year, chefs and waiters are no exception. Going home to worship ancestors is more important than opening a shop to make money.

3. Korea pays attention to many New Year's Eve dinners. The biggest feature is that all the meals are traditional, all from the hands of the daughter-in-law. The whole family should eat "five-grain rice", that is, rice mixed with beans, soybeans, adzuki beans, black beans and rice. In addition, we have to make "cakes" and wrap Korean "steamed bread". In addition to barbecue, there are more than a dozen wild vegetables or pickles on the main course.

In Korea, during the Spring Festival, the most important activity is to offer sacrifices to ancestors. On the morning of the Spring Festival, Koreans get up early, put on beautiful hanbok and offer sacrifices to their ancestors. During the sacrifice, after all kinds of food are placed in coffins with ancestors' names written on them, the descendants pour wine and then salute. Express the gratitude of children and grandchildren to their ancestors, and pray for their safety and health for one year. After the sacrifice, you can eat the first meal-rice cake soup. Koreans refer to Spring Festival food as "New Year's Eve", and rice cake soup is the most representative one.

When offering sacrifices to ancestors, the younger generation will pay New Year greetings to the elders, and the elders will give lucky money to the younger generation who will pay New Year greetings. The order of New Year greetings should be "grandparents → parents → uncles and aunts → uncles and aunts → brothers". During the Spring Festival, the greetings from peers are "Happy New Year". During the Spring Festival, there are always people who can't go home for the New Year or homeless people who sleep on the streets. The government and non-governmental organizations organize to celebrate the Spring Festival for them, so that they can feel the warmth of the big family during the Spring Festival.

Koreans often give gifts to each other during the Spring Festival. Gifts range from steak, yellow croaker, traditional snacks, healthy food, lunch meat, sesame oil, mushrooms, dried persimmons and daily necessities. Gifts should be packaged, and the color of the packaging is mostly tender pink.

7. Flower cards imported from Japan are the most popular things that Korean families play together during the Spring Festival. It is said that 90% of adults can play this card. Of course, some people use the Spring Festival holiday to travel.
