Jegichagi is another Korean traditional game that is played during Chuseok. “제기"(Jegi) means the the equipment we use for the game that looks like a badminton shuttlecock. “차기” (Chagi) means to kick. However, the history of this game is unknown. Some say that it originated from young martial artists who were training by kicking a small leather pouch in the air. Others say that it was developed from China during the Han Dynasty and this game was known as Cuju. Later, Goguryeo people in Korea played this game, which became the present day game of jegichagi. Today jegichagi is losing its popularity in Korea, which is why it has become a requirement for children in third and fourth grade to learn this game during physical education. Both adults and children play this game! It can be played both alone and in groups. The game is really simple and also really fun to play!
