Christmas in Korea


Christmas is always on the 25th of Dec in winter.
The weather is usually snowy but it sometimes does not snow.

Half of Korean people are Buddhist and half of them are Christian. During Christmas in Korea most Christians usually go to church to celebrate that baby Jesus was born at Christmas.
After that, they usually have some meal with their families and they exchange gifts.

Children always check the head of their bed on Christmas morning. They find the presents and are happy. They have a good time.

There are always big decoratians of
Christmas trees in the center of the city.
It looks beautiful!
We often can see Santa Claus on the streets and they give children a little present. When Santa Claus gives a present, children have big smiles. It's a happy time.

Buddists do not have a celebration on Christmas. My morther and father are Buddist. So we never celebrated Christmas and no gifts were given. When I was young I rarely thought about why Santa didn’t come to my house. I wanted to get a present on Christmas.
But I was not sad because my parents always gave me a present
called love. Anyway, Christmas is a wonderful joyful day!!!!!
