There will be 116 red days in 2013 in Korea!

January 1st will be a holiday, and March 1st (Independence Movement Day) is a Friday so it will be a 3 day weekend.

Some unfortunate holidays are still there. Lunar New Years will be on February 9th to 11th which will include a Saturday and a Sunday. Children's Day on May 5th will also be on Sunday.

Still, don't be disappointed as there are many more holidays coming up!

Buddha's Birthday is on a Friday (May 17th) so you will get to enjoy another 3 day weekend. Chuseok lies on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday (September 18th to 20th) so if you include Saturday and Sunday, you will be on vacation for 5 days straight! If you decide to take 2 days off before or after Chuseok, you will get to enjoy 9 days of vacation.

Last but not least, Hangeul Day (October 9th) will be a red day for the first time in Korean history.
