The end of the School Year in Korea

Today conclude our first year in Korea, or at least my first contract with my primary school as an English teacher. It is also the last day of the school year in Korea. Yes, it seems a little bizare to us solar-calendar-following-westerners. Here in the east the lunar calendar is traditionally followed and this weekend is the start of a new lunar calendar or the Chinese New Year as we commonly know it.
