By Honorary Reporter Eftychia Dovletoglou from Greece

Twenty Honorary Reporters sent Christmas and New Year wishes in their mother tongues. 

With Christmas and New Year approaching, I gathered 20 Honorary Reporters (myself included) to convey their holiday wishes to Korea.net and the world. The comments were written in each person's mother tongue, translated into English and displayed in a Christmas card format. 

Freja Boe Moller from Denmark
2021 was a difficult year for many people, so I hope 2022 is a year full of happiness and cozy moments. Remember to tell your loved ones that you love them. Merry Christmas and happy New Year.

Maria Clarizza Lazaro from Philippines
Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year. Here's hoping that 2022 is full of peace, blessings and happiness for all.

Hai Ha Vu Do from Vietnam
As an Honorary Reporter from Vietnam, I wish everyone many good things during Christmas and the New Year, reflecting on how the world changed last year because of COVID-19. I also hope to write useful articles for Korea.net to help spread Korean culture, people and values to Vietnamese readers.

I wish everyone merry Christmas and a happy 2022 with many blessings, luck, creativity and imagination. I wish the best for Korea.net, its employees, Honorary Reporters and the world.

I wish a happy and peaceful Christmas and a healthy New Year to Korea.net members, Honorary Reporters and the world. This is my first year as an Honorary Reporter but I couldn't write as many articles as I expected. So I will do my best to write interesting articles in 2022.

Merry Christmas and happy New Year. In 2022, I look forward to continuing as an Honorary Reporter, doing my best and promising to try harder with every article I write.

Merry Christmas and happy 2022. May the coming year be full of blessings and happiness. Due to COVID-19, this year wasn't easy but let's celebrate that we're still alive and well. I believe that 2022 offers a new opportunity to do better.

Kenza Slimani from Algeria
This year, I had the opportunity to join the Honorary Reporters family for the second straight year. My wish for 2022 is to write more articles on Korean culture and get more experience with this family. The most important thing is to overcome the pandemic so that I can visit Korea and meet Honorary Reporters soon. Happy New Year to everyone.

Shaima Ahmed from Egypt
I wish a happy 2022 to all my friends in Korea.net and hope that our friendship and activity will continue. I found it difficult to choose topics and write about them, but enjoyed many of my friends' articles. I hope the coronavirus ends so that I can follow Korean activities in Egypt and transmit them through articles.

I wish all Honorary Reporters merry Christmas with their families and a wonderful New Year. I hope the pandemic ends soon so that Honorary Reporters from Mexico can gather and share new experiences.
