    KOREANS FUNERAL TRADITION

    (Traditional Korean coffin)


    Korean funeral is held in a building known as a Jang rae sik jang. The funeral
    traditionally lasts for three days. A deceased is buried on the third day.
    CHINESE FUNERAL TRADITION

    (Chinese wake and procession)


    Chinese funeral has several main traditions. There are Buddhist ceremonies that last at
    least for 49 days. First 7 days are believed to be the most important. Prayers are said
    every 7 days for 49 days. If a family of the deceased is poor this period can be short,
    lasting for only 3 days.

    JAPANESE FUNERAL TRADITION

    A small table is put next to the bed with deceased. On such table there are some
    flowers, incense and a candle. Some people put a knife on the chest of deceased. This
    knife should defend her or him from the evil spirits. After death there is a ceremony
    called "Water of the last moment" or "Matsugo-no-mizu" where lips of the deceased are
    moistened with little bit of water.
