🇰🇷 You know what?
If you're living in or traveling around Korea this August, here's something worth knowing!
📦 August 14 is Korea's "Delivery Holiday."
The Delivery Holiday is a nationwide initiative that gives delivery workers a well-deserved break and helps improve their working conditions.
Here's what to expect:
✅ Most parcel deliveries and pickups will be paused.
✅ If you need something before the holiday, it's best to place your order by August 13.
✅ Because the holiday is followed by Liberation Day (Aug. 15) and the substitute holiday (Aug. 17), many parcel services will resume after the holiday period. Delivery schedules may vary depending on the courier.
💡 Good to know:
Coupang Rocket Delivery and Kurly's own delivery service operate on their own logistics networks, so they are generally available during this period.
If you're planning to shop online, ordering a little earlier can save you from unexpected delays!
