Cute Printable Korean Parent’s Day Cards for 어버이 날!

어버이 날 Korean Parent's Day Cards - Free printable for mother's day and father's day; coloring page for kids

My half-Korean kids are missing their grandparents extra these days. This week, we’re sending them cute Korean Parents’ Day cards! As always, we’re excited to share these printable cards with you!

Although handmade cards are usually the best gift, we know that store-bought cards are convenient when we’re short on time. However, since Korean is a minority language in the United States, Korean greeting cards are nearly impossible to find in small towns like ours.

Therefore, I hope these printables can help encourage your family to learn about the holiday in Korean! Korean parents and grandparents that are immigrants will likely appreciate sweet messages in their native language!

What is 어버이 날 Korea’s Parents’ Day?

어버이 날 (Eobeoi Nal) is South Korea’s Parents’ Day, a holiday that honors mothers and fathers.

Instead of a separate Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, Korean Parents’ Day is celebrated annually on May 8th.

Red carnations are the traditional gift, and these flowers symbolize love and gratitude.
