English encyclopedia on Korean seasonal customs released

The first English-language encyclopedia on Korea’s seasonal customs has been published by the National Folk Museum of Korea. 

The “Encyclopedia of Korean Seasonal Customs” consists of sections on the country’s four seasons and leap months, introducing in detail what each season has to offer culturally from holidays to manners and customs.

The museum launched a website in 2008 consisting of the online version of the original encyclopedia published in Korean. In the following year, the English version became available online. The newly released book is largely based on the English content of the website, carefully re-translated and edited.
