        "answer": "From Seoul to Australia, midweek departures — especially Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday — tend to be cheaper than weekends, and midday or evening flights often have the lowest fares. The off-peak Australian winter months (roughly June through August) are generally the cheapest season, while December, January, and major holidays like Lunar New Year see higher prices. Booking about two to three months ahead usually offers the best balance of availability and price on this route.",
        "methodology": "The cheapest day of the week and time of day to depart are drawn from the same large sample of real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours, grouped by the day of the week and by the time-of-day window of the outbound departure, with the lowest and average price reported for each. Stop counts, connecting hubs, and per-airline prices are drawn from a large sample of the real fares Priceline users found on this route in the last 72 hours. We group those fares by number of stops, by the hub airport a connection routes through, and by operating airline, and report each group's share of the sample alongside its lowest and median price."
