Hi, i'm mulling over contract details for a job in changwon and the contract states that "national holidays will not be inluded as paid vacation" is this right? Do you reckon I could re-negotiate this when I have my interview?I will be a first timer with no experience, thanks in advance.

National holidays are just that, national holidays, and as such will not be counted as part of your paid annual vacation allocation (often 10 days.)

If the national holiday falls on one of your usual workdays, you'll get that day off paid in addition to your annual vacation.

I think you're misreading your contract.

Post your contract in the contract sticky and have it run over just to be sure.
