(format: YYYY/MM/DD) will begin on August 9, 2021.

of birth (i.e. 10-day rotation reservation applies to both reservations made
via phone-call and visit)
For example, if the last digit of your date of birth (YYYY/MM/DD) is
"9," you will make your reservation on August 9.
** You can visit the official website (http://ncvr.kdaca.go.kr) to book an
appointment for vaccination, which involves a simple online self-authentication
process (i.e. You are required to make your own online reservation as no one
can do it for you; and only one digital device is allowed to be used per person
for reservation).

advisable to make the reservation through someone who can speak Korean as
