Any Air Shows in Korea this summer?

I know there were a couple last year, but anything this year?

Yes, there are. You just missed the rocket show, and if you're lucky, later this summer there might be a fireworks display. Look to the north.

The one at Osan is every two years about this time??

I've been getting regular almost daily air shows in Gangwon. I had 3 days of peaceful quiet when one crashed in the sea about a month ago as they were grounded temporarily. It's common for fighter jets streak through the rural Gangwon skies making a lot of noise. When I'm outside such as at 5:05PM after work, I see these cool looking fighter jets flying around doing military maneuvers. Sometimes they go low and make a lot of noise giving you a cool rush of fighter jet excitement. Other times, you get super sonic booms that make you wonder if a missile bomb hit near you, becuase they're flying planes that go faster than the speed of sound on occasion.

Air show in Osan every year around October. There was another around seoul, but not sure how often that one is.

I saw on TV a blurb about one in Seoul (I guess using the East Seoul runway?) which is going to be soon.
