Where to check official weather and safety alerts in Korea

Use official alert channels and the Emergency Ready app before heat, heavy rain, typhoons, or winter weather disrupt plans.

Korea sends disaster and weather alerts through official channels, but local messages may appear in Korean first. The Emergency Ready app is useful because it offers multilingual disaster information, safety guidance, and shelter-related services. Before summer heat, monsoon rain, typhoons, or heavy snow, check alerts in the app and compare them with local government or weather updates. If an alert sounds urgent and you are unsure, move indoors or to a safer place first, then translate and verify.
