The story behind Chuseok
Chuseok, Korea's harvest festival, is held on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, the same full moon as the Mid-Autumn Festival, usually in September or early October. In South Korea it is a three-day national holiday, and one of the year's largest journeys home.
Families return to their hometowns to hold charye, a memorial rite honoring ancestors with the season's first harvest, and visit and tend family graves. They share songpyeon, half-moon rice cakes steamed on pine needles, and may wear hanbok, traditional dress.
