Yeondeunghoe (Korean: 연등회; Hanja: 燃燈會; Korean pronunciation: [jʌndɯ̽ŋɦø]) is a lantern-lighting festival in Korea celebrating the Buddha's Birthday. The date of the celebration is marked on the Korean Lunar calendar as the eighth day of the fourth lunar month.[1][2] The English translation of the name of the festival is written as Yeondeunghoe, Yeon Deung Hoe, or Yeondeung Hoe. Likewise, the exact English translation of the words, “Yeon” “Deung” “Hoe” are varied with suggested meanings as, “Lotus Lantern Festival” and “lighting a lantern.”[3]
"The lanterns represent light, hope and unity".[4]
