It's a Korean tradition to celebrate a baby's 100th day of life. In the past, many babies didn't survive through the first few months. If a baby made it to 100 days, they would likely make it to their first birthday. If a child made it to their first birthday, they had a good chance of surviving to adulthood. So a long time ago, it became customary to wait until the baby was 100 days old, and have a big party. Babies are dressed in the traditional Korean dress, called a Han-Bok, and displayed with lots of fruit, rice cakes, and other food.
