Juldarigi (Hangul: 줄다리기 also chuldarigi) is a traditional Korean sport similar to tug of war. It has a ritual and divinatory significance to many agricultural communities in the country and is performed at festivals and community gatherings. The sport uses two huge rice-straw ropes connected by a central peg which are pulled by teams representing the East and West sides of the village (the competition is often rigged in favour of the Western team).
