"Let us move forward to final victory," he said.

I want to make a Christmas card that has many different languages in it, and I would like to know how to write in Korean- 'merry Christmas' or better yet write something like 'season's greetings' or 'happy holidays' so it wont be too restricted.


merry christmas in korean is "merry christmast" but with korean-english pronounciation (meri kurisumasu - 메리 크리스마스) or "christmast chukhaheyo" (크리스마스 축하해요)

happy holidays
즐거운
