Today is Korea's national holiday called...."Chuseok". It would be most similar to the holiday North Americans call "Thanksgiving". During this holiday people travel to their families tombs and bow to their ancestors. They also get together and have a big feast. They eat things like 'dduck' which is a compressed rice cake kind of treat. Typically many people wear the traditional Korean clothes called a "hanbok". It's a fun holiday...and we like it all the more because we have vacation from school :). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chuseok
