Christmas Eve
December 24, 2006
For Christmas Eve, the Hwang family and I met some
friends at a local seafood buffet restaurant. We had a great
time and lots of laughs. The date happen to be Christmas Eve,
but we were really celebrating the end of 2006. I don't think
Christmas is as huge here as it is in America. And as far as
the year changing, I think Americans seem to celebrate the turning
of the year while looking forward to the new one. It seems
that Koreans concentrate more on saying goodbye to the old year and
hoping the next one is better.
What I learned today about Korea: 1) This is my 2nd
Christmas here...wow!
