Santa? In Korea?


Many of the children we teach live in high rise apartment buildings. The apartments therefore lack chimneys. In light of the Christmas season I asked the second graders today how Santa came to their apartments. Many of the responses included through the window, taking the stairs instead of the elevator to avoid CCTV.

My favorite response (as many answers from Korean children have to do with bodily functions) was that Santa delivered toys through the toilet. . .this way no one is able to see him.
