Oh, Julie! :)
We were honoured to included in Julie's 100-day celebration with Oh family and friends :)
In Korea, on the 100th day after a child's birth, a small feast is prepared to celebrate the child's having survived this difficult period.
At this time the samshin halmoni is honored with offerings of rice and soup in gratitude for having cared for the infant and the mother, and for having helped them live through a difficult period. The family, relatives and friends then celebrate with rice cakes, wine, and other delicacies such as red and black bean cakes sweetened with sugar or honey. If the steamed rice cakes are shared with 100 people, it is believed that the child will have a long life. Therefore, rice cakes are usually sent to as many people as possible to help celebrate the happiness of the occasion.
