The government on Tuesday designated Armed Forces Day on Oct. 1 as a temporary holiday this year to boost troop morale and domestic consumption. A motion to designate the holiday was passed during a Cabinet meeting and will be sent to President Yoon Suk Yeol for approval. The designation, which came at the request of the ruling People Power Party, adds an additional public holiday to the current two in October -- National Foundation Day on Oct. 3 and Hangeul Day on Oct. 9.
