Korea has four distinct seasons, each with its own special beauty and charm. The richness of autumn, the brilliance of spring, the ardor of summer, and the bite of winter are all ingrained in Korean environment and culture, greatly impacting people’s customs and ways of life.

One of the most cherished seasons in Korea is spring. Gentle breezes begin to blow, flowers bloom, and nature awakens. The frost of winter gradually disappears. Every state in the country hosts cherry blossom celebrations in April, when the petals are at their most beautiful. People go to parks and streets during this time of year to take in the blossoms, and they frequently have picnics in the nice weather. Spring also signifies new beginnings in light of all the changes occurring in the workplace and in school.
2.Summer🏄♂️☀🌂(August – June)
Summer is characterized by high temperatures and humidity. There is a rainy season throughout the Korean summer, which can involve periods of intense rain, but clear skies usually follow. In order to escape the heat, many people take vacations to valleys or beaches, and there are numerous summer festivities. This time of year is a particular time to enjoy ice cream or patbingsu, a cool treat made with shaved ice. Summer is also a critical season for agriculture because it allows for the plentiful crop harvesting.
3.Autumn 🍁🍂🌰(September – November)
Korea’s natural landscape is most lovely in the autumn. As the temperature drops, the leaves display vivid red and yellow hues, resulting in a breathtaking scenery. “Danpungnori” (fall leaf viewing) is popular, and many people go to well-known locations to enjoy the changing of the leaves. Additionally, it is harvest season, with numerous regional celebrations honoring the profusion of food. The bounty and the abundance of nature in the fall make me happy.
4.Winter❄☃🎅 (December – February)
Winter is the coldest season in Korea, often accompanied by snowfall. Particularly in northern regions, harsh cold persists, providing opportunities for winter sports like skiing and sledding. During this season, comforting warm foods become especially appealing, with hot soups and stews warming the body. Furthermore, various celebrations such as Christmas and Seollal (Lunar New Year) occur, allowing families to spend quality time together.
