High Season
From June to September, tourism increase considerably. June is the last month of spring, where trees and shrubs bloom. From July the summer arrives with a very warm climate, but at the same time the monsoon arrives with abundant rains.
Shoulder Season
May and October receive fewer visitors than usual. May is a spring month, with warm weather and clear skies, on the other hand, October is a mild month, with little rain and many cultural activities.
Low Season
From November, until April, tourism falls almost drastically. The winter in Korea can be very long and strong in the north, although the few rains allow to enjoy the Korean landscapes with ease. Prices go down in lodging and other services.

Your travel to South Korea has about 245% the climate impact as your entire yearly budget of CO₂ emissions. This "yearly climate-compatible budget" sets the limit of emissions any person should produce in order to keep global warming to below 2C at about 2 tons of CO2. It includes anything from heating to stay warm and cosy in winter, your daily hot showers, the annoying commute to work, any traveling you do, the production of your yummy food and products you buy – and much more you emit by living your life.
