My partner and I have booked a trip to Seoul for the first week in October, not realising that this year this coincides with Harvest Moon Festival (which we thought occurs in September).

I understand that the whole week is a public holiday? Can anyone shed some light on how the holiday is likely to impact on us. Eg, will palaces, sites, markets etc. be open? Public transport? Coach tours?

... and any other info that might be useful for us.

Thanks!
