The origin of Lantern Festival is an ancient legend. According to legend, after the death of Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang, Liu Ying, the son of Lv Hou, became Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty. However, due to his weak nature and indecision, Lv Hou monopolized the state affairs, and both the senior officials in the DPRK and the imperial clan of Liu dared to be angry. After Lv Hou's death, Zhu Lu was so nervous that he was afraid of being hurt and excluded, so he secretly conspired to make trouble. This matter was learned by Liu Nang, the king of the imperial clan of Liu, who immediately contacted zhou bo and Chen Ping, the founding elders, and finally put down the "Zhulu Rebellion". Later, Liu Heng ascended the throne as Emperor Wen of the Chinese language. In order to celebrate zhou bo's leveling of the rebellion between Zhu and Lu on the 15th day of the first month, he would go out to play and have fun with the people every night. In ancient times, the night was the same as the night, and the first month was also called January. Emperor Wen of the Chinese language designated the 15th day of the first month as the Lantern Festival, and this night was called Yuanxiao.

In the Sui, Tang, Song and other dynasties, this festival was even more prosperous. "Sui Shu Musical Records" Day: "Every time in the first month, all nations come to Korea and stay in Jianguomen, outside Duanmen, until the 15th, which stretches for eight miles." Tens of thousands of people participated in singing and dancing, from faint to dull. There are many customs of the Lantern Festival that have been passed down to this day. Traditional celebrations include viewing lanterns, eating glutinous rice balls, eating Yuanxiao, solve riddles on the lanterns and setting off fireworks.

Lantern Festival, also known as Shangyuan Festival, Xiaoyuanyian Festival, Yuanxi Festival or Lantern Festival, is one of the traditional festivals in China, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar month every year. The first month is the first month of the lunar calendar, and the ancients called "night" "night". The fifteenth day of the first month is the first full moon night in a year, so it is called "Lantern Festival". According to the Taoist saying of "Sanyuan", the fifteenth day of the first month is also called "Shangyuan Festival". Since ancient times, the Lantern Festival custom has been dominated by the warm and festive custom of watching lanterns.
