Bridge day check
Falls on the weekend, so it costs most people no leave — and in many countries no day is given back.
What the day is for
The autumn harvest festival and the biggest family gathering of the year: ancestral rites, songpyeon rice cakes, and a mass return to hometowns over three days.
Do shops and banks close?
Most offices, banks and small businesses close for the full stretch; department stores shut on the main day.
Getting around
The heaviest travel period in Korea — expressways run at a crawl and KTX seats sell out weeks ahead.
