Springtime blessings

Confucian scholars take part in a ceremony to attach sheets of paper with springtime blessings written in Chinese characters to the gate of Daejeon Hyanggyo, an educational institute of the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910), in the central city of Daejeon on Feb. 3, 2025, the day of "Ipchun," one of the 24 seasonal divisions of the calendar that marks the onset of spring. The banner on the right side of the gate reads "Ipchun Daegil," meaning "Good luck on Ipchun," and the other one on the left reads "Geonyang Dagyeong," meaning "With signs of a positive spirit, your family is full of happiness."
