    Office arrangements

    The public-holiday classification indicates a general day of rest in the reviewed calendar. Individual workplace arrangements and essential services may differ.

    Bank arrangements

    No separate authoritative bank-closure schedule was located. Users should confirm services directly with the relevant institution.

    School arrangements

    No separate nationwide school-closure schedule was located. Education arrangements should be checked with the institution.

    History

    Daeboreum is the first full-moon festival of the Korean lunar year. Only the supported 2026 occurrence is retained.

    Why it matters

    This entry is included only as a general public holiday where the reviewed dated calendar supports that classification. Political or commemorative importance alone is not treated as proof of a public closure.

    Observance

    Official ceremonies, cultural events or family customs vary by holiday. The calendar does not infer an additional closure from a commemoration or celebration.

    Travel and planning

    Transport, border and visitor services can operate differently on holidays. Confirm current arrangements before travel.
