Taste of Korea

Chuseok, also known as Hangawi, is a national Korean harvest festival holiday that is celebrated across three days beginning on the 15th day of the 8th month on the lunar calendar. Chuseok translates to “Autumn Eve” in English and is often referred to by the global audience as Korea’s Thanksgiving due to the tradition of gathering together with family to give thanks to their ancestors for a successful autumn harvest.
