echineko 1 Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 What do you do at New Year in Japan? Do you do something special? How about those with Japanese wife or husband? Go back to their parents house for family New Year? I will go back my parents again this new year. Link to post Share on other sites
