The South Korean government is considering designating January 27 as a temporary holiday. If confirmed, it would create a six-day break for workers, including the weekend and the Seollal (Lunar New Year) holiday from January 28 to 30. This move would be the first temporary holiday designation in three months, following October 1, 2024. By taking just one day of leave on January 31, workers could potentially enjoy a nine-day vacation. This proposal aims to boost public morale and promote leisure time.
