- Clear skies and white clouds spread over Horogoru in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi Province, as cooler weather signaled the approach of autumn.

- South Korea’s weather agency forecast mostly clear skies and near-average temperatures nationwide on Sept. 7, the seasonal marker known as Baekro.
Autumn appeared first in the sky above Horogoru. On Sept. 6, white clouds rose over the blue sky in Yeoncheon, Gyeonggi Province, as the heat subsided and the wind began to blow.
The clear weather drew weekend visitors to Horogoru’s green hills. Under the open sky, people paused to enjoy the early fall atmosphere and the large clouds stretching overhead.
The grass still held onto summer’s green color. Visitors photographed the layered clouds behind them, as if they had been painted over repeatedly with a brush. Families walked with their dogs, while others in hats or carrying parasols stopped to take in the wide view.
The Korea Meteorological Administration forecast mostly clear weather and temperatures near seasonal averages nationwide on Sept. 7, the day of Baekro, a traditional seasonal marker that signals the start of full early autumn weather.
