source: http://www.flowers-cs.com/carnation.html today is May 8th 2012, in Korea children give carnation or red rose for their parent. i read in Please Take Care, Mom, parent day is very important. well, as far as i can understand from the mom did when none of her children gave carnation for her and her husband. she bought herself and force her husband to wear it. but her husband wore carnation just in front of her, after walked outside their house, he pulled it down. Mom wore it whole day. she wants the neighbors know that her children still remember Parents Day. well, it's not only give carnation or rose - usually use as corsage - but children can give gift or something parents want/need. just remember to always say thanks to our parent. smile and look after them. mom, dad, i love you. bonus special song from PSY, Father (싸이 - "아버지") source: http://www.youtube.com/artist/PSY?feature=watch_video_title and from BTOB, Father (same title) source: http://www.dkpopnews.net/20...

hi^^ in first week of January 2012. still, happy new year! wish for healthy and wealthy! well, some country has another new based on their own calendar. like Hijriyah, Chinese's calendar, and Korean. they use lunar calendar. but, now i want to post about korean new year or Seollal. Korean New Year, commonly known as Seollal (Hangul: 설날; RR: Seollal; MR: Sŏllal), is the first day of the lunar calendar. It is the most important of the traditional Korean holidays. It consists of a period of celebrations, starting on New Year's Day. Koreans also celebrate solar New Year's Day on January 1 each year, following the Gregorian Calendar. The Korean New Year holiday lasts three days, and is considered a more important holiday than the solar New Year's Day.[1] The term "Seollal" generally does not refer to Eumnyeokak Seollal (음력 설날, lunar new year), also known as Gujeong (Hangul: 구정; Hanja: 舊正). Less commonly, "Seollal" also refers to Yangnyeok Seollal (양력 설날,...

The word Diospyros means "the fire of Zeus" in ancient Greek.As a tree, it is a perennial plant.
