The Southern Delta Aquariids meteor shower peaks from Seoul around Jul 29-30, with up to 25 meteors per hour under ideal conditions. In 2026 a bright moon will hide most meteors except the brightest, and from Seoul the radiant in Aquarius climbs to 36° above the south horizon around 02:35. Local best viewing window: 00:05–03:50 KST on the peak night, about 3.8 hours of astronomical darkness. Scaled to that altitude, the 25/hour headline figure works out to roughly 15 meteors an hour from Seoul under a genuinely dark sky. Tonight: limited visibility; a site a short drive away may do better.
