The New Year event included the playing of traditional Aourudu games/ a cricket match, selection of Arturudu Kumara and At urudu Kumai, as well as Korean games and traditional dances.
The event was organized in collaboration with Korea Culture Association and was sponsored by the Seoul Metropolitan Government. Support was also extended by some leading Korean and Sri Lankan companies and entrepreneurs.
The full day event was a great success. The traditional New Year is celebrated when the sun moves from Meena Rnshiya (House of Pisces) to Mesln Rashiya (House of Aries), and marks the end of the harvesting season.
