Public Holidays in <strong>Korea</strong><br />
As in Australia, if a public holiday falls on a weekend the following Monday is taken off.<br />
Labour Day (1 May) is not an official public holiday in <strong>Korea</strong> but many banks and commercial institutions are<br />
closed. If you plan to travel to <strong>Korea</strong> around this time, check with your local partner to see if they are available.<br />
