🛡️ Etiquette & Safety
- Umbrella etiquette: indoors는 접어서 들기, 물기 털기 금지
- Heat & cold: 실내 AC/난방으로 실내외 온도 차 큼 → 레이어링 필수
- Hiking spots: 가을 성수기엔 등산로 혼잡 → 평일·이른 시간 추천
📌 Did You Know?
In Korea, cherry blossoms bloom from south to north over 3–4 weeks, starting in Jeju in late March. This means you could technically “chase” spring northward and see multiple festivals.
한국의 벚꽃은 3~4주 동안 남에서 북으로 개화가 진행됩니다. 3월 말 제주에서 시작해 북쪽으로 따라가면 여러 번의 축제를 즐길 수 있어요.
