🌕 WELCOME TO OUR CHUSEOK CELEBRATION

Chuseok has always been a time to return home — even for those of us who grew up far from the traditions that shaped our ancestors. As a Korean American adoptee, Chuseok carries a different kind of meaning: it is a chance to reconnect with a heritage we weren’t raised in, yet still feel in our bones. It is a moment to honor the families we came from, the families we’ve built, and the ancestors whose strength still guides us.

In 2026, Chuseok spans September 24–26, marking a season of gratitude, remembrance, and cultural pride. This year, America’s Bride Magazine brings that spirit to Las Vegas with a four‑day celebration created for everyone who has ever searched for belonging, identity, or connection.

We also honor the courage of modern cultural icons who remind us to stand firm in who we are. BTS’s decision to decline the Grammy nomination was more than a headline — it was a declaration of integrity, a reminder that our worth is not defined by institutions but by authenticity, community, and heritage. Their choice echoes the heart of Chuseok: honoring where we come from and choosing values over validation.

This celebration is for the adoptees reclaiming their roots, the families honoring their ancestors, the fans who found strength in Korean culture, and everyone who carries Korea in their heart — no matter where they grew up.

Together, we gather in Las Vegas to celebrate identity, tradition, artistry, and the shared pride that connects generations.
