Commonly known as the Korean equivalent of Thanksgiving, this year’s Chuseok is on September 13, and the holiday begins on September 12 and runs through the weekend. Some stars will be taking much-deserved breaks, while others will still be busy with work.

BTS will be continuing their official period of rest and will spend the holiday with their families.

JYP Entertainment artists TWICE, Stray Kids, and ITZY will have the holiday off. TWICE will return to preparing for their September comeback as soon as the holiday is over. Tzuyu shared, “I am meeting my family and friends and want to go camping for the first time in awhile,” while Dahyun commented, “I will eat lots of delicious food and watch shows like the ‘Idol Star Athletics Championships‘ at home.”

Starship Entertainment revealed that the agency makes an effort to not schedule work for their artists during the holidays. Following their recent world tour, MONSTA X will take the Chuseok holiday off and spend time with their families.

Chungha, who has been busy with both solo activities and I.O.I’s comeback preparations, will also spend the holiday at home with her family.

Swing Entertainment shared regarding X1, “X1 will be spending Chuseok, the first holiday after their debut, with their families. The members will return to each of their homes and rest during the Chuseok holiday.”

Some idols will be hard at work during the Chuseok holiday. SEVENTEEN is in the final stages of preparation for their comeback on September 16. NU’EST is heading to Taiwan for their “Segno” tour, while DAY6 is in the United States for their world tour “Gravity.” IZ*ONE is spending the Chuseok holiday in Japan for their scheduled Japanese promotions.

Saram Entertainment had the agency’s actors personally share their plans for Chuseok. Lee Je Hoon said that he will spend time with his family, watch good movies, and prepare for his upcoming film. Girls’ Generation’s Sooyoung revealed her plans to be, “Binge watching dramas I’ve wanted to watch, going on walks with my pets, learning my mom’s galbi-jjim (braised short ribs) recipe, and eating delicious food.”
