Our nonstop Seattle service comes at the perfect time; fall is the ideal season to explore Seoul. Yu recommends going to the Seoul International Fireworks Festival, which is set for late September 2025. The event attracts over a million visitors to the banks of the famous Han River and sets off stunning aerial displays over the city.
If serene is more your scene, she says to stop at the Seoul Outdoor Library (Sept. 5 – Nov. 2, 2025). The activation is an inviting space for book lovers who want to slow down, be present and explore multilingual titles, including English translations, amid Seoul Plaza’s crisp autumn ambiance.
“And you have to spend time at Seoul’s royal palaces, where nature and history come together at any time of the year,” Yu said. “Deoksugung Palace is this charming retreat with a stone-wall road that is especially picturesque and beautiful in the changing leaves.”
