Cherry Blossom Forecast 2026

Spring in Korea means cherry blossoms (beotkkot) painting the landscape pink. The 2026 forecast is out, predicting blooms 2–7 days earlier than usual due to weather patterns.

First blooms appear in the south, moving north. Peak viewing typically arrives about one week after initial flowering.

Full bloom follows roughly a week later. Expect Jeju around early April and Seoul around April 10.
