🌍

文化背景

The 'First Snow' (첫눈) is a major event. Couples often make plans to meet, and it's a popular time for romantic confessions. For soldiers, snow is 'beautiful garbage.' Mandatory snow removal (제설 작업) is a grueling part of winter service. Snowy or rainy days often lead people to eat Pajeon and drink Makgeolli, as the atmosphere suits these traditional items. In Seoul, snow causes immediate traffic chaos. People often switch to subways as '눈이 오면 차가 막혀요' (traffic jams when it snows).
