Summary of Korea’s Rest Days in 2023

January 1st New Year’s Day
Happy New Year, don’t you need another word?

January 21st to 24th, Lunar New Year
“Magpie’s Lunar New Year was yesterday. Our Lunar New Year is today.”

It’s a day when a large family gathers, exchanges words of blessing, and most of all, “New Year’s greetings.” From what I’ve seen so far, children will like this day after Children’s Day. Because I send New Year’s greetings to my family elders and receive New Year’s cash gifts.

March 1st, March 1st

This is the National Day of the Republic of Korea, and on March 1, 1919, during the Japanese colonial period, it was the day of the declaration of Korea’s independence against Japanese imperialism

In the Republic of Korea, the process of liberation on August 15, 1945, restoring national sovereignty, and establishing the Korean government on August 15, 1948, is also named and commemorated as Liberation. It is one of the representative celebrations of the Republic of Korea, where celebrations are held nationwide and the president delivers congratulatory speeches. In the case of broadcasters, special programs on Korea-Japan relations, Japanese colonial era, and the history of the independence movement will be aired.

September 28th and 30th, Chuseok

Chuseok is Korea’s representative holiday. Simply put, harvest grain, pray for a good harvest next year, and hold a memorial service for ancestors

October 3rd National Foundation Day

If you look at Dangun mythology, it’s the day when Dangun Wanggeom founded Gojoseon.

National Foundation Day (開節로) is a national holiday of the Republic of Korea, meaning “the day when the sky is open” and commemorating Gojoseon, the first country in the history of the Korean Peninsula. The date is October 3, which is designated as a legal holiday in Korea. It was originally celebrated on October 3 of the lunar calendar, but now it has been changed to October 3 of the Gregorian calendar.

October 9th, Hangul Day

In 1446, King Sejong proclaimed Heungmin Jeongeum, or Hangeul, at the dinner

In commemoration of the distribution of Hunminjeongeum, it is celebrated on October 9 every year as an anniversary to promote the originality and science of Hangeul and raise awareness of love for Hangeul. As of 2023, it is a legal holiday, and it is the fifth national holiday, so the Taegeukgi must be hoisted.

On Hangeul Day, various events with the theme of Hangeul are held all over the country, and foreign characterization of corporate brands and CI are sometimes changed to Hangeul. In addition, although the letter “Hangul” and the language “Pure Korean Language” are different concepts, campaigns are being conducted to use local pure Korean words that are not written in other characters such as Chinese characters or Roman characters. The unit for counting the anniversary of Hangeul Day is also marked as “several stones” rather than “several anniversaries” or “several times.” Hangul Day in 2023 is the 576th anniversary.

December 25th, Christmas

It’s a day to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ But this day is a bit special. Because I spend time with precious people such as family, lovers, and friends, so I can say that it is close to Family Day!

Do you know about four major insurances policies in Korea?

Have you ever heard of the word "four major insurances"?If you've watched news and TV a lot while living in Korea, you've probably heard it at least once. But what's the big four insurance policies? Does it matter to foreigners?I'll tell you more about the four major insurances today. What are the four major insurances? Korea's four major insurances refer to all four insurances directly managed by the government to ensure a stable economic life for the people from social risks. In Korea, people with income, companies, and institutions are required to pay four major insurances! It's a mandatory subscription insurance that all workers must sign up for, regardless of whether they are interns, non-regular workers, or regular workers!Foreigners also have to pay four major insurances if they work for a Korean company! When you look at job postings on recruitment sites, there are often the same conditions as "four major insurances included." Some companies offer four major insurances instead, or some companies have such conditions, such as 50%. What are the four major insurances? The four major insurances include national pension, national health insurance, employment insurance, and industrial accident compensation insurance. In the case of international students, if they live in Korea for more than six months, they are obligated to pay national health insurance every month. If you get a job in Korea, you have to pay the national pension, employment insurance, and industrial accident compensation insurance in addition to the national health insurance. Then what kind of benefits do you think each insurance provides? The four major insurances don't usually get any benefits right away, but they can get benefits depending on the conditions of the insurance the national pension The National Pension Service pays 4.5% of its monthly salary as an insurance premium almost every year. The national pension, which is later paid for retirement, is a system created in preparation for not being able to work if a worker retires after a certain age. In other words, when you retire later, you have the amount you can get every month, and that amount will be returned to the National Pension Service we paid for! employment insurance It is a system created for...
