| It's funny all of the stores being open on Christmas Day here. Back home, everthing is closed except for a few minimart type places. |

Most stuff is open on Christmas day in Canada these days... Christmas isn't really that sacred anymore.
It's no longer a statutory holiday either. You don't get paid holiday pay / overtime for working on Christmas anymore. |

| Judging from this, it appears that Solar New Years is a bigger holiday than Christmans in Korea. How messed up is that in a country where 50% of the citizens claim to be Christians? Don't they really mean Buddhist Christians or merely affiliates of the religion? |

It is still a statuatory holiday. A few of my friends got paid triple time for working Christmas and others recieved nice bonuses for not taking time off the week of Christmas. |
