Description

KNTO ( Korea National Tourism Organization) Has been hosting Korean Folk Game for foreigners who stay in Korea for many years in every 명절. 명절 literally means traditional holiday. So 명절 includes most famous Korean traditional holidays like 설, 추석 and so on.Let's read the words on the post together.전통 can be a noun or adjective. When 전통 is used as noun it means Tradition if it is adjective it will mean Traditional. 민속놀이 is a Folk Game. But do not translate 놀이 into game all the time. 놀이 is a kind of old fashioned word of game. When we refer to game we say it as it heard from English. We say 게임 /game/ Computer game is computer 게임, Board Game is board 게임 are going to be good examples for you.You can use 민속 along with Food 음식, 옷 Clothing as well. So it will come to 민속 음식, 민속 옷.마당 can be a ground for the game or activity. It is also old-fashioned word in Korean. So 전통 민속놀이 마당 is the ground for Korean traditional folk game in English. You got it?If you go to the hall in KNTO located in 종로 in Seoul you can take a part in 민속놀이 like제기차기, 윷놀이. Look at the pictures below. 제기 차기 윷놀이Also you can try on Traditional Korean Clothing 한복 with various activity. I called them and checked the information. Ha Ha Ha!There are proper translators at venue for English and Japanese and Chinese and they will let you know how to wear and how to do 민속놀이.Date :4th February to 10thTime : 10 am to 6 pmThey said they give you 복주머니 as a souvenir it will look like this. 복주머니What is 복주머니. Two words has combined in 복주머니. 복 is good luck or fortune and 주머니 is a basket. So you can understand what 복 주머니 means. My mom said people tends to hang a basket on the front door in 설날 long time ago for wishing that good luck will come into the basket new year.If you need more information email me.
