Juldarigi is the Korean traditional rope-pulling game played at harvest festivals such as Chuseok.
In juldarigi, two teams pull opposite ends of an exceptionally large rope, often made from intertwined strands of rice straw. The contest is a communal form of tug-of-war, with victory going to the team that pulls the rope beyond a designated line.
The game has traditionally been connected with village festivals, agricultural communities, and hopes for a plentiful harvest. Different regions developed their own versions, and some celebrations used separate male and female teams or elaborate rope designs.
Juldarigi is distinct from ssireum, which is an individual wrestling contest, and from neolttwigi, the Korean seesaw game. Several regional forms of Korean juldarigi have also been recognized as important cultural heritage, reflecting its communal rather than merely athletic role.
