Opinions were divided over the temporary holiday of the Lunar New Year on January 27th or 31st.

The government has designated the 27th as a temporary holiday.

Let's listen to Acting President Choi Sang-mok's remarks at the Cabinet meeting.

[Choi Sang-mok / Acting President and Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Strategy and Finance: In particular, the upcoming Lunar New Year holidays should be used as a solid opportunity for the economic recovery of people's livelihoods. To this end, the government announced the largest "New Year's holiday measures" ever. In addition, I would like to designate January 27 as a temporary holiday after deliberation by the Cabinet today. I hope that the people will have enough time to recharge during the long holiday season, and actively participate in reviving domestic demand and creating a win-win atmosphere through domestic travel and "good consumption activities."
