Influenced by China culture, Koreans also have the custom of Spring Festival. On New Year's Eve, the whole family stayed up all night, and the music of Ye Qin and flute brought people into the New Year.
A traditional celebration was held on the evening of the fifteenth day of the first month. Several elected old people boarded the "moon-watching frame" to see the bright moon first, which symbolizes the health, progress and all the best for future generations. Then, everyone danced around the lighted "moon viewing frame", accompanied by long drums, flutes and suona music.

In the middle reaches of the Yarlung Zangbo River, there is a tradition of "looking for fruit" before the autumn harvest. According to legend, this is a relic of the Chinese New Year in June in ancient Tibet. There is also the Tibetan calendar for the Chinese New Year in October, which comes from those ancient times. Around the 3rd century A.D./KLOC-0, when the sagar Dynasty ruled Tibet, Tibetans celebrated the New Year in the first month of the Tibetan calendar.
