I've lived in Jeonju for 2 months and recently began to notice how abysmal the air quality is. For instance, today it appears to be overcast of pure smog. Is this normal for this time of year? Am I overreacting? (I've lived in Hong Kong before and don't remember it being this bad).

Cheers.

Laughing Yeah, that takes more knowledge, to have heard of spring sandstorms: "yellow dust".
