Those leaving the country via Incheon International Airport reached 2.8 million in the July- August period, up 10.8% at the same last year, an airport authority was quoted as saying by the news report.
The surge in travel is attributed to the strong Korean won, cheap travel packages to overseas destinations and sultry
weather with many rainy days during the summer season, experts said.
China appeared to be the most popular destination attracting 898,678 Koreans. Followed closely by Thailand and
the Philippines with 625,251 travellers visiting.
