What is Sambok and Yudu Festival in Korea about?

Sambok marks the three hottest days of summer in the traditional Korean calendar. It was historically an important farming holiday. Common Sambok foods included dog meat soup and ginseng chicken soup, though dog meat soup is less common now. Other popular summer dishes in Korea are haemultang (seafood stew), naeng kongguksu (cold noodles in broth), and mango bingsu dessert. For Yudu festival, which hopes to rid of ghosts, people would historically bathe in creeks and eat foods like yudumeyon for longevity.
