Last week I noticed my eyes were really itchy. For a few weeks, I've been sneezing uncontrollably in the mornings. I thought it was an allergy to my little bunny.
Yesterday evening, the air seemed really hazy. My nose started getting very stuffed and runny, so I took some Tylenol Cold&Flu and waited for it to kick in. I waited 2 1/2 hrs, and I was still going like a faucet, so I gave up and turned in at about 2:30.
What followed was a lot of snuffly sleep, interrupted by my nose brimming over. My bed and the floor surrounding it looked like a blizzard had hit from all the TP/bog roll I had gone through.
At 5 am I got up to get some water, and the air outside was completely opaque. Today the haze has dissipated to a mere smoggy mist. I'm still utterly stuffed up.
I've noticed some other people complaining about this too (just foreigners though.) Have you suffered it? |

| I don't live in Seoul, but my nose suddenly became really stuffy a couple of days ago. My throat has been hurting too because I assume I'm breathing with my mouth open while I'm sleeping. I thought maybe it had something to do with the sudden change of temperature. |

Same here. I suspect the air quality.
Today, the brownish hue of the sky was a little concerning. It was hard to tell where the brown dirt soccer field ended, and the sky began. |

| Interesting...I live in Daegu and woke up today with a sore throat. I've also sneezed quite a few times. Symptoms a little different to how a cold usually develops for me, but I'm guessing that's what it is in my case. |

Today was repulsive.
I tried the USFK yellow sand site but it seems to be down. |
