Chuseok is the Korean Thanksgiving that falls on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar, usually between September and October. It is a harvest festival where families pack up and travel to their ancestral hometown to clean gravesites, make offerings, and have large family meals while wearing hanbok. One of the iconic foods is songpyeon, a stuffed rice cake that people make wishes with as they shape. Chuseok involves ancestor worship through setting up elaborate tables of food and performing specific rituals.
