South Korea is a small country near China, also south of North Korea. But Sotuh Korea are way different than North Korea. South Korea's land is on peninsula, it located at north temperate zone. Always have horrible weather in fall, it is called Monsoon. In winter, they will have long and dry weather, but in summer will be short, hot and humid. Korea is very beautiful during summer times. Full of wildflowers, clearly blue sky, and made Korea a favortie place for vistors to come.
            A small country as this is, had 20 national parks! One of the parks was virtually untouches snice 1953. Ancient Korean forests was cut down over years. It had caused major flooding and soil erosion.

Chu'sok is similar to America’s Thanksgiving. As soon the Holiday starts, many people went out to shopping, stores always have full of people during that days. Kids stays home from school during Friday and Monday. Before or after the holiday, workers gives out gifts to each other.
     Buses, planes, or trains always full on these holiday because many people like to travel or having a little trip with family.
