Seollal is one of Korea's two big family holidays. Many shops and restaurants close, especially on the day itself; of the 20 places below, 18 stay open every day of it. When a holiday lands on a place's weekly closing day it usually opens and closes on the first ordinary day after instead, so check the days just after the holiday too.
