Weather in Korea Korea has four seasons: spring, summer, fall and winter. We have relatively clear difference between seasons though it has been lot less distinct than before. When it's in a period of transition, we often get cold because the weather is not changing gradually. Rather than the gradual change in temperature it often changes dramatically during that period. When the weather is changing from winter to spring, there is a period with extremely cold days called '꽃샘추위'. The name's meaning is quite interesting. It means that the winter or the cold wind is being jealous of flowers coming out.
