Today I learned about the life of Koreans.
In the past, when a baby was born, the parents of the baby hung the straw rope in front of gate of the house. If a boy was born, they put charcoal and red pepper on the straw rop. If a girl, they put charcoal and pine branches on the straw rope. But now, the parents of the babies don't put straw rope. they just have a celebration with other adults.
On the other hand, I found 1 same thing between the past and the present. When a baby's first birthday comes, they have a celebration with other people. there are many things that people put before the child's seat. If he/she picks the book, People think that he/she will be a scholar. a rice or a bill, that means he/she will be rich. a thread, will live long. When people come to this party they usually bring a gold ring. |
