(Yonhap) Long rice cake Day’: Veteran rice cake makers and general participants hold five colors of “Garaetteok,” or long rice cake, at a square in Insa-dong in downtown Seoul, Friday, to celebrate the Garaetteok Day, which falls on Nov. 11. The government has been commemorating the day since 2006 as the cake’s shape resembles the Arabian number one.
