What this guide can tell you

Korea has four distinct seasons. Spring and autumn often have large day-to-night temperature changes, summer can be hot and rainy, and winter can be cold and dry. Exact conditions vary by city and year.

How to plan by month

For a rough first decision, compare the season, your preferred activities and your tolerance for heat or cold. Once you have dates, use the Trip Planner to see recent observations for a date window rather than treating a monthly summary as a forecast.

Packing without overpacking

Bring layers in spring and autumn, sun protection in summer and serious insulation in winter. A compact umbrella is useful when comparable dates often recorded rain, but it does not predict rain on your trip.
