Chuseok boxes

Workers are hard at work moving boxes at the Osan branch of Lotte Mart in Gyeonggi yesterday, 20 days ahead of Chuseok, or the Korean harvest festival. The distribution center currently handles some 270,000 boxes per day, a 45 percent increase from usual for the national holiday which will last from Sept. 29 to Oct. 1 this year. [YONHAP]
