🌤 Weather summary and notes

🌤 WEATHER SUMMARY & NUANCES: Expect a delightful spring embrace with temperatures ranging from +13°C to +24°C . While the days are warm and perfect for palace strolls, the evenings near the Han River or atop Namsan Mountain can be breezy and cool. Clothing: Layering is key. Wear a light t-shirt for the afternoon sun, but carry a stylish windbreaker or cardigan for the "Blue Hour." Yellow Dust Alert: May can bring "Asian Dust." If the sky looks hazy, grab a KF94 mask from any 24/7 convenience store (CU or GS25). Rain Plan: If a spring shower hits, the underground malls at COEX or the futuristic halls of DDP are your best retreats.
