SEOUL, Oct. 19 (Korea Bizwire) — Mount Bukhan in northern Seoul has begun to turn yellow with the coming of autumn.
The Korea Meteorological Administration said Tuesday that autumn foliage has colored 20 percent of Mount Bukhan, including its peak, proclaiming the entrance of a new season.
This year’s yellowing of the mountain came two days earlier than last year and four days later than average.
Of all the famous mountains in South Korea, Seorak, Odae, Chiak, Sobaek, Songni and Deokyu have begun to see autumn colors.
Mount Odae already reached the peak of its fall foliage on Monday with 80 percent of the mountain tinted in yellowish hues.
Peak foliage typically comes about 20 days after the leaves begin to change color.
