What are holidays in Korea like? Does everything close?
Good questionholidays in Korea are both similar and different to those, for example, in the United States. Even on the most important Korean holidaysSeollal (Lunar New Year) and Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiving)movie theaters are typically open for business and downtowns come alive toward the evening.While Western holidays, such as Christmas and New Years Eve, are increasingly more commonly celebrated in Korea, business goes on as usual on these days.
