सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि

The 'First Snow' (첫눈) is a day for lovers. Many people believe that if you meet your crush during the first snow, you will fall in love. For soldiers in the Korean military, snow is often called 'beautiful trash' (예쁜 쓰레기) because they have to shovel it constantly to keep the bases clear. Gangwon-do is the snowiest region in Korea. People there have specific traditional snowshoes called 'dubari' to walk through deep snow. In Seoul, '눈이 와요' is often followed by a check on the subway app, as snow causes significant traffic delays on the roads.
