Korean Tangun Era calendar

According to Korean legend, the god-king Tangun founded the Korean nation in BC 2333. Early Korea used a lunar calendar. As the rest of the world encroached on Korea, it eventually went to the solar, Gregorian calendar. Yet much of the country still uses the lunar calendar to keep track of births and deaths and some traditional holidays.
