Eating tteokguk means getting one year older. P
During chuseok, Koreans make and eat songpyeon. P
They give thanks for the year with songpyeon. P
Making pretty songpyeon means having a pretty child someday. P
This dish is miyeokguk. P

Above all, it went great with a bowl of rice. P
Koreans eat miyeokguk on their birthdays. P
This tradition comes from mothers. P
After a child is born, the mother eats miyeokguk for her health. P
But how do Koreans put candles in it? P
This chicken dish is samgyetang. P

It fell off the bone and flew into my mouth. P
Samgyetang is much tastier than chicken soup. P
Many Koreans enjoy eating samgyetang on really hot days. P
It's like fighting fire with fire. P
