"Tteokguk" (soup with sliced rice cakes) is a traditional Korean food that is customarily eaten for the New Year. According to Korean age reckoning, the Korean New Year is similar to a birthday for Koreans, and eating "tteokguk" is part of the birthday celebration. Once you finish eating your "tteokguk", you are one year older. On Korean New Year day, people prepare a lot of food and spend much of the day with family. "Jeon", sometimes called "buchimgae", is a traditional Korean dish especially eaten on the Korean New Year's Day. A savory pancake, one would expect it to be sliced with a knife. However, the "jeon" is ripped apart with chopsticks in the belief of making it taste better. Other foods commonly prepared are mandu-guk, ddeok, galbi-jjim, and japchae. Many traditional games are associated with the Korean New Year. The traditional family board game "yutnori" remains a popular game, especially during Korean New Year. It is played using a set of specially designed sticks and is considered appropriate for all ages and genders. Men and boys traditionally would also fly rectangle kites called "Yeon" (Hangul: 연, see "yeonnalligi"), and also play "jegichagi", a game in which a light object is wrapped in paper or cloth, and then kicked in a footbag like manner. Korean women and girls would have traditionally played "neolttwigi", a game of jumping on a seesaw (Hangul: 시소), and "gongginori", a game played with five little "gonggi" (originally a little stone, but today many buy manufactured "gongi" in toy shops>). Top ("paengi" (Hangul: 팽이) in Korean) spinning is also a traditional game played by children. Recently, a few adults play Go-Stop instead of traditional hwatu.
