Pick South Korea 🇰🇷 if you're going in…

March, April, October, November

Avoid the Korean monsoon (jangma) in late June–July.

Pick Norway 🇳🇴 if you're going in…

June, July, August

The northern lights need clear, dark, cold skies — March is statistically the best month in Tromsø.

Months where both are equally good: January, February, May, September, December.
