Picture choosen by: Mr.Kim Daesung Weather in South Korea Weather
Korea has four very distinct seasons: Spring mid-March to the end of May; Summer June to August; Autumn September to November; and Winter December to mid-March. Of course the actual weather doesn't always come right in time.

Temperatures differ hugely between midsummer and mid-winter, with August being very hot and sticky, while December and January are literally freezing. And winters in north are normally colder than that in south. Heavy rainfall always arrives with the summer monsoon season – late June to mid-July.

Best Time to Go
The best time of year to visit is autumn, from September to November, when skies are blue, the weather is usually sunny and warm and the forested mountainsides are blazes of astonishing fall colours.

Spring is another beautiful season, with generally mild temperatures and cherry blossoms spreading north across the country in April. Camellias, azaleas and other plants and trees flower, but as with autumn, some days can be cold, so bring warm clothing.

Winter is dry but often bitterly cold, particularly in northern parts. This is the time of year when you really appreciate hot-spring spas and the saunas as well as spicy soups. White snow on traditional house roofs is very picturesque, and winter is the time for skiers, snowboarders or ice-skaters to visit.

Try to avoid peak summer, from late June to late August, when the country receives some 60% of its annual rainfall, and is followed by unpleasantly hot and humid weather. Although air-conditioning makes summers much more bearable these days, many locals flee the muggy cities for the mountains, beaches and islands, which become crowded, and accommodation prices double. There is also the chance of a typhoon or two.
