Yut Game (윷놀이)

Have you ever played Yut?

During this vacation, my family enjoyed playing Yut.

Yut is a traditional game of Korea.

We usually play this game when we get together.

Below picture is the board of Yut which we played on.

The board of Yut game (윷판)

You can put something as a player's horse.

This time, we used above each clips as horses.

The rule of the game is easy.

Just go and come back along the way.

You will start at the starting line and your horses will stay on the dots.

Yut bars (윷가락)

You can move your horses by throwing those bars when it is your turn.

Depending on the up and down direction of the rod, you can move your horses from 1 to 5 dots even -1.

If you put your horse on the other player's horse, the player who lost his horse has to start again from the start line.

 

I recommend that anyone who visits Korea try it once.

It's different from a chess game.

You can enjoy it with other people as a team.

 

Actually, It was awkward playing games with my family before my brother-in-law came.

The reason is that there was only my mom who was a woman in my family.

Thanks to my brother-in-law, we had a fun time with Yut.

 

What about playing a traditional game when you meet your family instead of playing mobile game alone?

You can make good memories through your small choices.

Yut game could be a fresh experience for your family.

I hope we could have an opportunity to play the game together in the future.

 

Have a nice day, my foreign friends.
