Starting around September 9, Baekro, or the ‘white dew’ period, gets its name from the little drops of dew that appear on the ground in the mornings. The wild geese return home and the swallows begin their southward journey.
Chooboon (추분) – Autumn Equinox
Full guide
The 24 Korean Seasons: A Guide To the Jeolgi Calendar
Starting around September 23, the autumnal equinox marks the day when day and night are equal in length. This turning point in the season sees the disappearance of lightning, bugs hiding underground, and water beginning to dry up. It’s also the time when typhoons often blow.
During the autumn equinox, grains are harvested from the fields, cotton is picked, and peppers are picked and dried. Other autumn harvest tasks include gathering pumpkin leaves, gourd leaves, perilla leaves, and sweet potato sprouts. Wild vegetables are dried to prepare fermented vegetables for the coming months.
