Picture of the Day: Chuseok Traffic Jam

Fall harvest holiday exodus starts

In this aerial photo taken on Sept. 13, 2016, hundreds of cars are backed up at a service station exit in Anseong, south of Seoul, along a highway linking Seoul to the port city of Busan, as South Korea’s annual exodus for the Chuseok fall holiday begins. Chuseok, which falls on Sept. 15 this year, is the season for family reunions, with Koreans traditionally offering a ritual feast to their ancestors on Aug. 15 of the lunar calendar. Almost 37.52 million people are expected to travel to their home towns during the holiday. (Yonhap)
