Dust Feel is a simple map I like to use for browsing current air quality measurements all over Korea. With the horrible air we've had this week, this seems like a good time to share this.
Yes there are plenty of resources like this but I prefer this one for its simplicity and ease of use. Works great on desktop or mobile, no app installs or anything needed. It's a nice improvement over the clunky Air Korea website even though it pulls its data from the same source (the Korea Environment Corporation, 한국환경공단).
Just browse around the country. Good for finding the nearest measurement location to you. Click it for a quick look at conditions. For example here's a monitor station along Gangnam Boulevard, the 서울 강남대로 측정소
Click that to get a more detailed look at the type and amount of pollutants in that area.
Don't worry if you can't read Korean. Chrome can auto-translate it easily (I think it's thinking 강남대로 is 강남대+로 and not 강남+대로)
I'll even embed it here:
It doesn't have every single monitoring station but it gets the job done. Personally I've occasionally used this on bad air days to find what general location has better air and take a drive over there.
Here's the link:

I'm sure everybody's got their own favorite go-to air quality map, so if you've got another you prefer, leave me a comment.
