M:Who is the cute child in this picture,Lily?

W:Her name is Tae-Hee — my uncle’s daughter.She’s one year old in this picture.It’s a very special celebration in Korea.I think it’s more important than a wedding or a graduation!Here’s the picture of the restaurant where we celebrated Tae-Hee’s big day.

M:I like your hat!And I like the red and silver hat Tae-Hee’s wearing too.It’s pretty.

W:Yes,it’s a traditional hat for a girl.A baby boy wears a different one——all black.It looks serious.

M:That’s a bit boring.Black and silver would be more interesting.What are you holding?

W:Oh.It’s a little bag.All the guests get a gift bag at the end of the party.And inside there’s a present from the baby’s parents.It’s fun to open it because you don’t know what you’ll get.So it could be a candle,or some chocolates.Guess what I got?You can see it in the next photo.

M:It looks like a box of tea.

W:You’re right.
