On New Year’s Eve 2024, subway and bus services in Seoul will have extended operating hours to support late-night travelers. Subway lines 1 through 9, along with the Ui-Sinseol and Sillim Lines, will run until 2 a.m. on January 1, 2025, ensuring convenient transportation for those participating in celebrations such as the Bosingak Bell-Ringing Ceremony in Jongno.

Keep in mind that last train schedules may differ by line and direction. Additionally, crowd control measures may be implemented at stations near major events. For example, trains may skip Jonggak Station between 11 p.m. and 1 a.m. to manage large gatherings.

City buses will also operate on extended schedules, with select routes running until 2 a.m. However, temporary detours might affect some routes near event locations due to road closures.

For the latest updates and detailed schedules, travelers are encouraged to consult the Seoul Metropolitan Government’s official communications or contact local transportation services ahead of time.

"Kimchi Day" celebrated on Nov. 22 is the anniversary created to highlight the quality and worth of kimchi.

Each component of the kimchi will be combined to create 22 visuals, which is the symbolic meaning of the celebration (November 22).

A UNESCO-designated intangible cultural heritage of humanity is Korea's kimchi tradition, which is passed down throughout the entire country and was incorporated in 2013.

Do you like Kimchi? We have an entire article about that on our website!

The holiday season is finally here 🎄🎁

Which one do you want to try first?

👩‍🎓수능 / Suneung is the Korean college admission exam!

🙋‍♀️The 'Suneung' exam is the highest point of Korean students' academic careers, hence they all study for it. 'Life-defining' is how they describe it. Every few weeks, students take 모의고사, a mock exam, to get ready for this test. Students will have additional options in the future if they receive a high enough score to get into one of the SKY institutions (Seoul University, Korea University, or Yonsei University).

🙋The entire country comes together on the day of the 수능 to ensure that students arrive at their assigned schools on time. In the event that children are running late, the police officers have more than 3,000 police cars and 200 fire trucks ready to go to their designated school. To lessen traffic on the highways, even banks and large corporations open an hour later than usual. During the listening portion of the test, all aircraft and flights are grounded, and military training is also suspended due to noise distraction.

🧏‍♂️You can support students taking the Suneung by giving them rice cakes and traditional Korean snacks like 엿 [yeot] or 찹쌀얡 [chapssaltteok]. Since they both have a sticky feel, offering them these snacks is a way to wish them luck in getting into or being admitted to the university of their choice. The stickiness represents the idea of "information will stick in their minds".

🧏‍♀️The student will take a gap year to 재수, or repeat the exam the next year, if they are unhappy with their result.

👨‍🏫How is the college entrance exam in your country?

HANGUL DAY | 한글날

Today we celebrate Hangeul Day!

This day marks the birth of the Korean alphabet. When King Sejong published the Hunminjeongeum has introduced the Korean alphabet 'Hangeul' we all know and learn today on October 9th, 1446.

This day is celebrated in both South and North Korea. However, in North Korea is celebrated on January 15th as 'Chosun-gul' Day.

We celebrate this wonderful day to appreciate the unique alphabet Korean has introduced to the world and that until this day many people are eager to learn!

국군의 날 🇰🇷

The Armed Forces Day, which comes on October 1, has been declared a temporary holiday by the South Korean government.

October 1st will be recognized as a holiday, with National Foundation Day on October 3rd and Hangeul Day on October 9th following behind.

Consequently, if workers take an extra three days of leave, they will now be able to take nine days off in total.

The designation was made in order to “honor the role of the military and increase public awareness of the importance of national security,” according to the administration.

This year, Chuseok will fall on the 16th through the 18th September, and in addition, there will be a five-day holiday over the extra weekend.

In these days, what would you do?
