Seoul received the first snowfall of the season Wednesday morning, about a month earlier than last year, the state weather agency said.

The Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA) said light snow was observed at the Songwol-dong weather observation station in central Seoul at 6:10 a.m. The KMA records the first snow seen at the Songwol-dong observatory as Seoul's first snow of the season every year.
