South Korea 2028: calendar analysis
This analysis is calculated from the holiday entries displayed on this page. It distinguishes unique dates, nationwide dates and regional scope instead of treating every stored row as a day off everywhere.

0 regional entries
The 18 stored holiday entries fall on 17 distinct dates. Several regional holidays can share a date, so counting table rows as universally free days would be misleading.
Nationwide dates: 17. Of these, 16 fall from Monday through Friday and 1 falls on a weekend. A weekday date still needs to be checked against the employment rules that apply to the individual case.
No regional holiday entry is stored for this country-year; all displayed dates are marked as nationwide.
October has the highest count with 6 displayed entries. This describes the stored calendar distribution, not an automatic entitlement to time off.
Understanding annual planning
South Korea calendar 2028: plan public holidays precisely
This annual calendar contains 18 stored holiday entries across 17 distinct dates. 17 dates are marked nationwide; 16 fall from Monday through Friday and 1 fall on a weekend.
The first stored date is 신정연휴 on January 1, 2028, and the last is 기독탄신일 on December 25, 2028. October has the highest monthly concentration with 6 entries.
No separate regional entry is stored for this country-year. Municipal holidays and short-notice days off may nevertheless apply.
Working days and possible bridge days in South Korea
4 nationwide dates fall on a Tuesday or Thursday, including 설날, 부처님오신날, 현충일 and 광복절. They are useful starting points for bridge-day planning.
A precise working-day calculation needs the actual workplace region. A regional public holiday is not deducted throughout the country, and collective agreements, industry rules or substitute days can change the result.
Check school breaks, ISO weeks and daylight separately
No published school-holiday dataset is stored for South Korea in this year. This does not mean that schools have no breaks; the responsible education authority and school remain decisive.
The linked solar calendar uses the named reference location and its time zone. Sunrise and sunset can differ elsewhere in South Korea.
What to consider when planning through 2050
Recurring and mathematically movable holidays can be projected across many years. Election dates, one-off state events, later substitute days and new legislation become reliable only after they are adopted and published.
For important plans, keep the country, region and year together and recheck distant dates later. This calendar supports planning and does not replace binding information from an authority, school or employer.
