Neolttwigi is the Korean traditional seesaw game associated with Chuseok celebrations.
The game uses a long, narrow wooden board placed over a central support. Two players stand at opposite ends and take turns jumping, causing the other player to rise into the air. Skilled players may perform spins, jumps, or other movements while airborne.
Neolttwigi has traditionally been associated especially with women and girls, and it was played during major holidays including Chuseok and Seollal. Its dramatic height and acrobatic style made it both a recreational activity and a public spectacle.
Neolttwigi is sometimes confused with ssireum, Korea’s traditional wrestling, or jegichagi, a foot-kicking game. Unlike those activities, neolttwigi depends on coordinated jumping and the seesaw effect of the board.
