Because the dragon is their symbol of good luck for a new year. They also believe (Although this could be Japanese) that the "lung" dragon taught them to write & read which I can see some truth because most dragons are VERY intelligent!

As far as is known they are a. Mythical , and B. Serpentine or maybe giant-centipede-milipede type thing. Unlilke the Western dragons they do not have wings or fly and do not exhale fire. they are more snake-like and are good luck oriented. They also tend towards an aquatic habitat, unlike the Western Dragons. as far as is known they are mythical, some seem like giant caterpillars more than traditional serpents.

Dragons are ancient symbols in Chinese society. They are considered to be sacred animals. They are old and wise animals. The Chinese dragon has never been the source of fear that Western dragons have. Dragons are popular symbols on kites, and "dragons" take part in most parades.
