Often compared to American Thanksgiving, Chuseok is Korea’s harvest festival celebrated in autumn. Families return to ancestral homes, prepare feasts like songpyeon (rice cakes), and honor ancestors through rituals called charye. It’s not just about eating—it’s about expressing gratitude for harvests and family bonds. Traditional games, dances, and wearing hanbok enrich the celebration. For outsiders, Chuseok offers insight into how Korean society balances modern life with deep-rooted respect for heritage.
