On August 28, 2026, the nationwide air quality for fine dust is forecast to be "Good."
According to the Korea Environment Corporation’s forecast overview, all regions are expected to be rated “Good.”
Regarding the cause, "Due to atmospheric stagnation, fine dust from the previous day will linger, causing most central and western regions to remain at the 'Moderate' level until the morning. However, starting in the afternoon, the influx of clean southerly air and smooth vertical (upper and lower layers) dispersion will dissipate the concentrations, and the daily average concentration across all regions is expected to be 'Good,'" the agency analyzed.
Since fine dust concentrations will not be high across all regions, there should be no major disruption to outdoor activities.
Good — Seoul, Jeju, South Jeolla, North Jeolla, Gwangju, South Gyeongsang, North Gyeongsang, Ulsan, Daegu, Busan, South Chungcheong, North Chungcheong, Sejong, Daejeon, Yeongdong, Yeongseo, Southern Gyeonggi, Northern Gyeonggi, Incheon (19 locations)
