Children's Day (Eorini nal) is a South Korean national holiday celebrated on May 5. It was founded by the Korean children's writer and storyteller Bang Jung-hwan in 1923 as a way to instill a sense of independence and national pride in children. Eorini nal highlights the dignity of children and their need for love, care, and respect. It is also a day to honor parents who have contributed to improving the lives of children.
On this day, families celebrate with various fun programs for children. Parents often dress up their children and take them to national parks, amusement parks, zoos, or to the cinema for a full day of fun and games. Children receive gifts and money from their parents as well.
