About Korean Winters
If you come from a warm climate, you may find Korean winters on the chilly side. If you come from a northern climate, you may find Korean winters on the mild side depending on what part of Korea you live in.
Since Korea is a long country that runs north to south, the temperatures in winter vary heavily depending on where in the country you live and how close to the sea you live. The winds blowing over the sea bring chills that can cut to the bone.
Winter weather in Pyeongtaek, South Korea
In Pyeongtaek we deal with the cold winds that blow off the sea across the farms.
