Plan around July
July is one of the lower-scoring months here; the best are October & November.
- First warm month: highs reach 76°F, up from 69°F in June.
- Start of the wettest three-month stretch (July – September), which brings about 27.5 in (698 mm) in total.
- The year's biggest warm-up: highs jump 4°C (6°F) from June.
- Comfort slips from 55/100 in June to 46/100.
- Our Seoul, Gyeongju & Busan route recommends Apr – Jun, Sep – Nov, so July falls outside its suggested window.
