Residents whirl cans with LED lamps as they take part in "jwibulnori," a popular traditional game, near a stream in Seoul's Nowon Ward on Feb. 9, 2025, three days ahead of Jeongwol Daeboreum, a traditional Korean holiday that celebrates the first full moon of the year according to the lunar calendar. Korean people used to play the game of jwibulnori on Jeongwol Daeboreum by swinging burners full of coals around in rice paddies to chase away evil spirits and bad luck and also setting fire to the dry grass on the edges of the rice paddies to kill insects hidden in the field and soil.
