SEOUL, South Korea, Oct. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- With the final long holiday of 2025 approaching, South Koreans are eagerly planning their travels for the 10-day Chuseok celebration. Digital travel platform Agoda reports a rise in travel interest during this period, with searches for both domestic and international destinations climbing by 29% and 19% year-on-year, respectively, as travelers make the most of this extended break.
Based on accommodation searches made by South Korean travelers from May to August for check-ins during the Chuseok holiday, Agoda revealed that South Koreans were most interested in traveling to Japanese destinations during the long break. Tokyo emerged as the top choice, followed by Fukuoka and Osaka. Beyond Japan, Bali (Indonesia) and Da Nang (Vietnam) round out the top five overseas destinations. The findings indicate that South Korean travelers continue to favor short- and mid-haul destinations, which allow quick getaways while still spending quality time with family during the holiday.
For domestic travel, Jeju topped the list, followed by Busan and Seoul. Notably, secondary destinations like Gyeongju and Sokcho round out the top five domestic travel destinations for South Koreans. Gyeongju has seen the highest growth in domestic travel interest, with searches increasing by 91%.
Sokcho has also emerged as a domestic travel hotspot thanks to the city's efforts to attract visitors with 'work-cation (work + vacation)' initiatives and the installation of the 'Sea of Light' media art display at Sokcho Beach, where travelers can enjoy night ocean views paired with immersive light art, creating an ideal setting for photos.
Jay Lee, Country Director, South Korea at Agoda, said, "With the Chuseok holiday ahead, South Korean travelers are eager to make the most of their last long holiday of the year by traveling with family, friends and loved ones. Agoda is committed to offering a wide range of affordable flights, accommodations, and activity options, helping travelers create memorable experiences both at home and abroad to make this an unforgettable Chuseok holiday."

Agoda Unveils Top Overseas and Domestic Travel Destinations for South Koreans Ahead of the 10-Day Chuseok Golden Holiday
HANOI, Vietnam, Jan. 28, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunhouse Group, a prestigious National home appliance brand in Vietnam, today officially announced a strategic partnership with Anchanto, a global leader in Omnichannel Commerce and Logistics SaaS technology. This project marks a monumental step in Sunhouse's digital transformation journey, involving the deployment of a comprehensive Order Management System (OMS) across four countries and Warehouse Management System (WMS) at two key regional logistics hubs.
A Strategic Vision: From Manual Operations to Global Automation
As Sunhouse pursues its ambitious international expansion, E-commerce has been identified as a core strategic pillar. To achieve the goal of tripling its online business scale, Sunhouse recognized the need to overhaul its existing infrastructure to meet the demands of markets in Vietnam and high-standard regions including the USA, Mexico, and Canada.
Previously, Sunhouse faced significant operational hurdles:
- Fragmented Data: Manual processes on international marketplaces like Amazon led to significant data synchronization delays, resulting in inventory inaccuracies and 'overselling' risks.
- Manual Warehouse Workflows: Traditional warehouse management struggled with real-time tracking of batch numbers, expiry dates, and serial numbers. This created bottlenecks in order fulfillment speeds, particularly during peak sales periods.
To eliminate these barriers, Sunhouse has partnered with Anchanto to implement a dual-solution ecosystem:
Multi-Market Order Management (OMS): Deployed across Vietnam, USA, Mexico, and Canada, the system centralizes data from Amazon, TikTok Shop, Walmart, and Sunhouse's own websites into a single platform. This ensures 100% automation of order flows and inventory updates.
Digitalized Logistics Infrastructure (WMS): By implementing Anchanto's Warehouse Management System at two major e-commerce warehouses in Northern and Southern Vietnam, Sunhouse will achieve precise control over product lifecycles, optimize packing speeds, and enhance Reverse Logistics capabilities.
Leadership Insights
Vaibhav Dabhade, Founder & CEO of Anchanto, stated at the signing ceremony:
"We are honored to partner with Sunhouse—an icon of Vietnamese industry—as they scale their footprint globally. By leveraging Anchanto's world-class technology, Sunhouse will gain a 'centralized brain' for their operations, eliminating geographical barriers and multi-channel complexities. We are committed to ensuring Sunhouse not only manages better but grows faster in every market they enter."
Mr. Nguyen Xuan Loc, E-Commerce Director of Sunhouse Group, emphasized:
"Digital transformation is no longer an option; it is a prerequisite for Sunhouse to realize its goal of tripling our Sunhouse's current scale. Implementing Anchanto's solutions allows us to solve the puzzle of fragmented data and optimize our logistics capacity. This is the solid foundation Sunhouse needs to serve global customers with professional, lightning-fast service."
Future Outlook and Expectations
The new infrastructure is expected to reduce order processing time by 50%, eliminate inventory discrepancies, and provide the scalability required for Sunhouse to enter new global markets in the near future.
The synergy between Sunhouse's market leadership and Anchanto's technological prowess represents one of the most significant and sophisticated digital transformation projects in the retail and household appliance sector in 2026.
About Sunhouse Group: Sunhouse is a national household appliance brand in Vietnam, boasting a vast distribution network and modern manufacturing ecosystem. With a customer-centric philosophy, Sunhouse continues to innovate its technology to provide convenient solutions for modern homes worldwide.
