First Birthday Party

 
A party is held on the 100th day after birth.
 
Koreans believe that if they wish something for 100 days with all their heart, their wishes will come true.
 
So Koreans believe that if the baby survives for 100 days, he or she will enjoy a long life.
 
There is also a big celebration on the first birthday of the child.
 
The relatives and friends of the parents are all invited.
 
There is a funny custom on the party day.
 
Parents put thread, a pencil or a book and money on the party table.
 
If the baby picks up the thread, it is said the child will have a long life.
 
A pencil or a book means the child will be a good scholar and money symbolizes a rich man in the future.
 
When Koreans are invited to the first birthday of a child, they present a gold ring to the parents.
 
Friends and colleagues collect money to buy the gold ring.
 
Some people get many rings, but it is not for the child's finger but for the benefit of the child, in times of need in the future.
