New Year’s Greetings

Date of Issue : 3 December 2012

The year 2013 is the year of the snake.

The “New Year’s Greetings” stamp for this year consists of two stamps: the “snake” stamp and the “Jaegichagi” stamp that features “Jaegichagi,” one of the folk games played on New Year’s Day. In the “New Year’s Greetings” stamp for this year, glow-in-the dark ink was applied to the snake’s body shown as white and the snow particles (in the “snake” stamp), the snow particles (in the “Jaegichagi” stamp), and the three snakes and the snow particles (in the souvenir sheet).
