Excerpt on back: This is a bustling scene preparing food being used on the

New Year's Day. Rice cakes are the most representative dish in Korean big

festive days as a special dish or a snack. A strong man used to hit steamed

rice on a big wooden board with a mallet and then women turned it over

and put water on the mallet to prevent sticking.
