First, on the 6th, the Eunpyeong-gu Family Center hosted the ‘Lunar New Year Cultural Sharing Event’ with about 50 multicultural families. This event was held as an exchange venue where multicultural families gathered in one place to share affection and experience traditional Lunar New Year foods from Korea and various countries.

The main events included ▲a group Yutnori competition with multicultural families dressed in their traditional costumes ▲a multicultural photo zone ▲experiencing traditional games from various countries such as China’s Bagakgun, Vietnam’s Buu Qua Ga Kop, and Japan’s Kendama ▲and tasting traditional foods from each country such as Korea’s Sikhye, China’s Sachima and Tanghulu, and Japan’s Dorayaki.

In particular, on the 8th, the ‘Luck (福) Come Quickly Event’ will be held with about 20 youth preparing for independence. The first part invites a recreation instructor to share future plans and create a roadmap for their 20s. The second part involves the district mayor sharing Lunar New Year foods and having group conversations to discuss and encourage each other on concerns such as economy, housing, and university admission.

Kim Mi-kyung, Mayor of Eunpyeong-gu, said, “We will do our best to ensure that all residents can have a warm and abundant Lunar New Year holiday,” adding, “We will continue to spare no effort in holding various events and providing support for multicultural families and youth preparing for independence.”
