Kpop Christmas

Although half of South Korea’s population identifies as “no religion”, about a quarter of the population is Christian and the country recognizes Christmas as a national holiday. Reportedly, Korean Christians celebrate Christmas like Americans do… with Christmas trees and decorations. However, like Japan, Christmas can be considered a romantic couples holiday. Families spend New Year’s together instead of making a point to spend Christmas together like in America.

Vocab:

Santa – 산타 할아버지 (Santa Halahbahjee) = Grandpa Santa

Christmas – 성탄절 (Seongtanjeol)… or 크리스마스 (Kulisumasu)

Merry Christmas – 즐거운 성탄절을 보내세요 (Julgeohun Seongtanjeol Bonaeseyo)… or 메리 크리스마스 (Meli Kulisumasu)
