I've read about a bunch of interesting cultural events taking place in Seoul in the past during Lunar New Year. I was wondering if anyone has heard of/has details on any special events this year?

For families with children, Seoul Namsan Gukakdang�s (02-2261-0502) play �The Farting Lady� would be the show to watch. Based on a Korean folktale that appears on elementary school textbooks, the performance will consist of gukak, a puppet play, pantomime elements, and Korea�s traditional masked dance moves.
The comical play tells the story of Bong-soon, a young woman who has been married for three years. One of her biggest secrets has to do with something really embarrassing: her farts.

They can be so powerful that a house can almost break down. Bong-soon somehow successfully holds in her farts for the first three years of her marriage, but accidentally lets it fly one day. Her husband�s family kicks her out as a result. What will Bong-soon do to make a return to her husband?

The play runs till Feb. 27.
