Chuseok β Korean Traditions
Fri, September 25, 2026
Often called Korean Thanksgiving, Chuseok is the autumn harvest festival when families travel back to their hometowns to honor ancestors and fold songpyeon, half-moon rice cakes steamed over pine needles, late into the night. It's three days of charye rites, full-moon games, and a table that thanks the year for what it gave.

Lunar New Year β Chinese Traditions
Sat, February 6, 2027
The whole year hinges on one meal: the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve, where the family comes back together over a whole fish (for abundance), dumplings folded like gold ingots, and a sticky nian gao that promises a higher year ahead. Then come the red envelopes, the lion dancers, and fifteen days of red and gold that close with the Lantern Festival. 2026 is the Year of the Horse; 2027, the Goat.
