What to wear in April
Full spring. A single long sleeve is perfect, with a light jacket on hand.


April is full spring. Blossoms are out and outings pick up, so a single long sleeve feels just right. Mornings and evenings still run cool, and yellow dust is common — one light layer earns its keep.
A thin long sleeve or shirt with a denim jacket or cardigan makes the day easy. With lots of outings this month, pick a light outer you can take off and carry.
Seoul averages 8°C at night and 19°C by day. Nineteen is ideal for a single long sleeve, but eight in the morning is not — which is why a light jacket ends up in your hand all month.
