The Seoul Metropolitan Government's schedule identifies October 3–4, 2026 as the next adult and senior fitness-check weekend at the first-floor lobby of Seoul City Hall's main building, 10:00–17:00. It is not a repeat of the family holiday pop-up held September 25–27. The regular series runs on selected first and third weekends, not every Saturday and Sunday, through December 20. Recheck any last-minute city notice before travelling.
Decide how to register
The city offers a time-slot reservation inside the Wrist Doctor 9988 (손목닥터9988) app or on-site registration on the event day. Its published rule opens reservations at 13:00 on the Friday of the preceding week. By that rule, the October 3–4 weekend's opening point was September 25 at 13:00. We did not verify September 29's remaining slots. On-site registration can involve a queue and should not be mistaken for guaranteed immediate admission. The city's reservation help number is 1811-9988.
Avoid mixing three different programmes
- October 3–4: Adult/senior session in the official schedule.
- October 17–18: Listed as a separate children's session.
- September 25–27: The completed Chuseok family pop-up. A September 28 city-hosted citizen report describes that past event, not the currently available October booking inventory or an identical programme next weekend.
The city describes strength, muscular endurance, cardiovascular endurance and flexibility measurements for adults, with additional balance/walking-related checks for seniors. If a health condition limits what you can do, tell the staff and ask which measurements are suitable. The city says a participant unable to do every item can use appropriate measures; this article cannot judge individual medical suitability. Result discussion and exercise guidance are described, but confirm the actual day's operation on site.
The 1,000-point rule is conditional
Seoul's announced 1,000 Wrist Doctor 9988 points concern Seoul residents aged 18 or above who complete fitness measurement. A booking alone, an accompanying child or simply entering the lobby does not establish entitlement. The city's notice also describes points for people who cannot complete every item because of health but finish the feasible measurement service; ask the operating staff how this is handled for your case.
Use this sequence: check the dated adult/senior session; inspect a real app time slot or the day's walk-in rules; find the main-building first-floor lobby; confirm measurement and point conditions.
