Whats Chuseok( 추석)?
Well the Koreans called it thanks giving day
and apparently is one of the biggest important traditional Korean holidays ever held.
Most Koreans would go back to their hometown and visit their relatives and
gather all together for a meal.
***the hanja (chinese character) for chuseok is 秋夕
also see wikipedia
During Chuseok there is many types of traditional delicacies
such as songpyeon (송편), a type of Korean rice cake (also known as tteok in korea ) that has fillings inside.
Songpyeon reminds me of tangyuen and mocchi somehow but taste far harder (and a lil' saltier?) than it orz.
The dorm is closed during chuseok ,
so I had to move back to
my host families house for 6 days and 5 nights.
My chuseok holiday was pretty
interesting, we didn’t go all the way to taebek to visit Aboji’s family, but
instead we stayed put in Gwang Ju and just cooked all the Chuseok Korean Food.
OAMGEEE KOREAN CHUSEOK FOOD TASTE SO GOOOOOD
ok I hate Korean food but ....
HNGHHHH
CHUSEOK FEWD
AWMAHGAHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!
They had this satay (?) thingy that has
meat, and mushroom and cucumber and it

the egg batter and then cook it over the grill (?)
AND OMAGAHHHHH SOOOOO

On Tuesday, my host family brought me to another sinful
place,
CALLED DONGADAEMUN!!!
Aka the heaven for all kimchiland cosplayers.
I
felt so bad because I bought so much things in Dongdaemun and my host parents
payed it for me because I forgotten to take the money out of the atm earlier
on.
After that she said :
" CHUSEOK SEONG MUL (chuseok present) "
and I
was like
NOOOOOO OMG I WASTED SO MUCH MONEY !!!!
ITS LIKE I BOUGHT A PAIR OF
NICE BOOTS AND SUNCAP AND A SHIRT AND SHE EVEN BELANJA ME CREPE BECAUSE I WAS
SOO HUNGRY AND I WAS CRAVING FOR SWEETS WHY U SO SWEET MAMI TvT </3.
yay! nadeko boots and you know whoo's hat LOL
Sadly
le fabric market wasn’t open because I really had to buy cloth to sew for my cw
plans.
At night, we went to this Korean old band concert called Delgukhwa (들국화).
Apparently they are also known as the Korean Beatles back in the old generations.
I had to admit that their songs
are pretty good, especially ‘Jeju island blue night’,
which was written by Choi SungWon whom is one of the members in Delgukhwa.
This song is really chill and the melody is really
relaxing and beautiful.
Till today that song still remains as one of the famous
classic Korean rock songs and could sometimes heard covered by many k-pop singers and used in drama
shows.
dongseng, oma, me and aba!
Sadly no photos, during the concert
so I only took photos outside the
location where to concert were held at.
The rest of my holidays when we did not go out was spend at
home where I had time to draw and sleep HAHAHHAHA like a very lifeless otaku as
usual.
But overall my holidays were
awesome!!
