Visitors to the National Folk Museum in central Seoul watch a woman sprinkle red bean porridge in the nooks and crannies of a house as part of the re-enactment of the Dongji, or winter solstice, exorcism rite on Wednesday. According to Korean traditional custom, people make the porridge and sprinkle it throughout their homes to prevent evil spirits from entering, and to wish for good luck on the winter solstice.
