Call 119, 129 or 120 in the event of a medical emergency during the Chuseok holidays.

Seoul City announced this on Tuesday, along with information about hospitals and drug stores available during the national holidays.

While general hospitals and their ERs are supposed to do business as usual, 470 smaller hospitals and pharmacies will open in rotation.

Detailed information is available at the National Fire Agency, Seoul City, and the National Emergency Medical Center.

"I recommend people check in advance which hospitals and pharmacies are available during Chuseok," said Na Baek-joo, director of Seoul City's public healthcare management division.
