China Daily: Why Treasure When Losing: Dragon Boat Festival
 

Shared heritage

SEOUL - The Korean Peninsula has had an on-off infatuation with things
Chinese for 1,000 years.

Recent reports that Seoul was considering applying to put its Dragon
Boat Festival on Unesco's cultural heritage list as its homegrown
festival had created an uproar among the Chinese, the Yonhap news
agency reported.

The fifth day of the fifth lunar month, which Koreans call Dano and
Chinese call duanwu jie, is believed to have spread to the Korean
Peninsula 1,000 years ago.

I've had Korean rice stuck together treats but I don't think I bought
one with leaf wrapped in it. Though I might have seen something like
it ... like savory Japanese rice squares?

Are there Korean versions of this Chinese leaf wrapped rice thing?
Anyone? Delicious?
