The Christmas Truce in 1914 was a moment of unexpected miracle during the First World War. Right up until Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, German, Scottish and French soldiers fought as no other war. All three parties had a reason and was not going to turn back. But when Christmas Eve arrived the holiday spirit pranced through the trench. And for a full 48 hours there was a moment of peace and humanity that no men could have ever expected.
The 2006 film Joyeux Noel depicts this warm Christmas spirit.

A night before Christmas Eve, such movies remind us of what human heart could do. There is snow outside tonight. It looks like we are going to have a very white Christmas, a kind that we haven't seen often in Korea.
Merry Christmas with love
