stroppyse Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Dear Havenites, Welcome to the JangHaven 100 Days Celebration! The 100 Days also called "Baek-il" in Korea celebrates a baby's first 100 days of life. JangHaven is our baby, and we're happy to celebrate its first hundred days! The Tradition's Background The 100 Days celebration is a tradition that started from a grim reality of high infant mortality rates in Korea's past. There are 2 birthdays in a baby's first year of life actually. 100 Days marks the baby's birthyear (approximately) from inception (9 months of pregnancy plus first 100 days outside of the womb), while "Dol" which is 365 days from the date of birth marks the birth year from when a baby is born. In any case, the first 100 days of life was considered crucial to the baby's survival. However, infant mortality rates have dropped in line with the rest of the developed world, and so the 100 Days Celebration has become another reason and celebration of a baby's life. OUR CELEBRATION Our 100th Day is actually on November 30th. However, we love celebrations so much that we're going to do a week of it! In celebration, we've prepared some events and threads to celebrate our fabulous members! Follow the links below to check out the various events and features during our event.

The tiger who is a mythical protector in Korean lore is a thank you for sharing your thoughts. We started giving that medal out on November 30, the actual 100th Day or JangHaven. Thank you! 3 2 4 Link to comment

stroppyse Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 If you all like the tiger medal and are wondering why the tiger is the 100 Day Festival medal, I did a little write up in Traditions about the importance of tigers to Koreans. 2 1 1 Link to comment
stroppyse Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 As we bring our 100 Day Celebration to a close, I wanted to especially thank some people for their tireless efforts. Thank you to our fantastic staff, of course. We literally wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the staff being engaged and active in every way, both on JangHaven and on the JangHaven Chat Discord Server. Thank you to our Graphics Team of @bairama @gm4queen and @Tofu for always coming up with fun and beautiful designs, sometimes with little or no notice, and our Event Organizer @SnowBlob for coming up with new games and events for better engagement with our members. Thank you to @40somethingahjumma @mademoiselle and @Jane for being so prolific and engaged on JangHaven. I think that you have contributed as much as we staff have in the success of our community thus far. Thank you to @abs-oluteM for managing our social media outreach as well as starting threads, livecapping dramas, and somehow managing to be on almost every thread on our site! We have a fantastic community, supported by really fantastic staff, so as we pass one milestone, I'm looking forward to the other milestones in the future! Thanks to all of our members and our staff! 1 2 3 Link to comment
40somethingahjumma Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 @stroppyse No problemo dear. I enjoy every moment spent blogging and reviewing dramas. Presently I'm something of a lady of leisure so it's all good. A genuine pleasure. 3 2 1 Currently Watching: Imperfect Victim, The Uncanny Counter S2, My Dearest, Fake It Till You Make It, One Piece My Drama Blog "Love is not an affectionate feeling but a steady wish for the loved person's good as far as it can be obtained." -- CS Lewis.
