100 days


Micah celebrated his Baek-il at Harabujee and Halmoni's home. The Baek-il celebrates the 100 days after a baby's birth. The number 100 has an inherent meaning of maturity and perfection. Micah received a few gifts along with wishes of good health and blessings. We had a steamed rice cake prepared (baekseolgi) shown in the picture which has a symbolic meaning of holiness. Noah enjoyed eating the baekseolgi (especially because he never got to taste his own cake because he was too young)... whose baekseolgi will Micah get to eat???
