Yunnori gameplay — four yut sticks tumble onto the board, landing on Back-Do

The throw

Throw the sticks

Four wooden sticks tumble through the air — the tremble in your fingers, the clack of wood, the half-second you can’t predict. We rebuilt that single moment.

Yut — all four faces up. Throw again!

The board unfolds

One board, drawn beneath your fingers

Where the sticks come to rest, ink spreads — and the board draws itself across it. Four pieces settle onto the first square, and the game begins.

The story

The game the whole family gathered for, every Lunar New Year

Yut Nori is one of Korea’s oldest games. One long-standing account traces it to the ancient kingdom of Buyeo, and people once tossed the wooden sticks to read the fortune of the year ahead. Do, gae, geol, yut, mo — pig, dog, sheep, ox, horse: the five outcomes carry the names of the animals our ancestors held dear. On Seollal morning, grandparents to grandchildren would gather in one room to throw the sticks. We carried that warmth over, untouched.

Tradition as essence, not decoration

Red, blue, yellow, white, black — pieces in true obangsaek. Dancheong patterns. The grain of hanji paper. Not an imitation, but a board shaped by hand, with care.

A new face every day

One fresh motif, daily

The board, the pieces, even the backs of the sticks reskin every day — plum blossom, hanji, celadon, obangsaek… and on Seollal morning, a special board unfolds in deep red and gold.

The joy of playing together

Around one table, or oceans apart

01

Hand to hand

Two players or four, gathered round and sharing one screen.

02

On your own

A quiet moment, a light round — whenever you like.

03

Faraway family

Far apart, yet gathered around the very same board.
