Cheusok Holiday


Cheusok is the Korean Thanksgiving holiday. During this holiday people traditionally go home with gifts and make a huge meal, and bow down to their relatives. Yet, many Christian Korean families don't do this. My friend Jade is one such Korean. So for Chuesok family she helped us plan a trip to Gyeongi-do. There we had fun relaxing, cooking out, and playing paintball. Chris loves paintball, so this was definitely the trip for him.
