Fifth of May is Children's Day in Korea.
It used to be my favorite holiday during child hood. On that day, children usually receive some presents from their parents. I also received them like a doll, Lego, puzzle and so on. During children's day many families also go on a picnic to an amusement park, a zoo or the movie theater to make their children happy.
Except for this holiday, there were other three days which I liked, which were Christmas, my birthday and the Chinese New Year's Day. On those days, I could get some valuable things without spending my own pocket money. I'm sure that everyone knows the reason why I liked my birthday and Christmas! On Chinese New Year's Day especially, relatives usually gave me money after I performed a New Year's bow. I had lots of relatives- maybe.... more than 20?? So~ after bowing, I could buy pretty dolls and delicious snacks as many as I wanted because my relatives had given me lots of money! ^^ hhh. Furthermore, I could meet my cousins who I was really familiar with!! I was very happy on Chu-Suk(Chinese New Year's Day) .
These 4 days are still my favorite holidays~!! They are wonderful days.

Hi Ja Young
It's so nice to learn about special days in different countries. I now know about Children's Day and Black Day!
