I don’t believe superstition, although I am not a firm believer that everything or all the happenings should be proved by science to be true. Although technology and science have been advanced dramatically, there are still many things that cannot be explained by science. On the contrary to the western proverb, a full moon represents prosperity and happiness in Korea. People make their wish on full moon. The 8th full moon day of the year is Chuseok, the Korean Thanks Giving Day, which is one of the biggest holidays in Korea. Long time ago people use to believe that during full moon night God send the heaven fairies to earth and the full moon was their guide. There are also a lot of people who don’t believe in this kind of things but they will do it anyways just to enjoy the beauty of the night moon light. Some people are two sensitive to his/her jinx such as when he/she breaks the mirror, it will probably bring him/her a bad luck or misfourtune.

Good day, Sir [이름]. ^^
How are you today?

I am so happy that you did your essay again.

Actually, I was surprised when one of my students told me that I should make a wish whenever it is full moon.

And he told me the reason, it might come true.

So from that time on, I make a wish when it is full moon.

My family and relatives put into practice the superstitious beliefs that their parents told them.

For example: When a person breaks something such as mirror, glass or cup he or she should break a bottle once to avoid misfortune.
We shouldn\'t sweep the floor when it is already six o\'clock in the evening.

Anyway, we can talk more about this in class.

See you.
