Daljip(the Moon house) burning is one of the seasonal customs in which people set fire to piles of pine branches when the moon rises on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. The history of the festival seems to be very old, considering that it is a kind of ritual that is widely practiced in the mountains of the southern part of the country and is widely distributed in China and Japan.
Songcheon Daljip Taeugi is handed down to Songsan Village in Songcheon-ri, Woldeung-myeon, Suncheon-si, and is distinguished from other regions in many ways.
When the nongak is heard, villagers carry a forklift and go to cut bamboo and pine branches, some of which break down moon houses in neighboring villages and steal bamboo trees. In the wide front yard of the village, a log is placed in a cone shape and wrapped around a vine. The sound of a large knot bursting is said to drive away the evil of the village, so a large number of large vials are put in and burned. A bundle of straw collected from each house is piled up in the moon house, and a pine branch is raised to make it catch fire. On top of the moon house, there is also a kite attached to it, which had been floating since the beginning of the year. I waited for the moon to rise. They light a fire, and when the flame rises red, they strike nongak, dance until the fire is burned out and goes out, and shout cheers.
Believing that there will be a good harvest if the fire rises higher than the neighboring village, the Daljip-taewoo is said to put out the moon as the smoke rises to the sky. Some predict a good harvest when the moon house is burnt down, but it is said that a good harvest will occur only when it falls at the end of the night.
The Great Full Moon is a symbol of abundance, and the fire is a symbol of purification that sweeps away all injustice and evil, and the Moon House burning has a close relationship with the Moon. The moon house burning contains the hope of a generous New Year and a bright New Year with no diseases or worries.
