Key points in 3 lines
  1. There is a possibility that October 10 this year (Friday) could be designated a temporary holiday, extending the Chuseok holiday from Gaecheonjeol through October 12 for up to 10 days.
  2. With four days off on October 5–7, a substitute holiday on October 8, and Hangeul Day on October 9, only October 10 would need to be taken off, and overseas travel bookings have already surged.
  3. The National Assembly Research Service analyzed that domestic consumption fell and exports dropped 10.2% during the temporary holiday for Seollal in January, and critics also argue that workers at businesses with fewer than five employees are not covered.
