Gaecheonjeol → National Foundation Day (Korea) – Nearly certain "National Foundation Day" is the WP:COMMONNAME. Based on a crude Google Books search, "gaecheonjeol" gets 527 hits and "national foundation day"+"korea" gets 3,490.

It's also the name in English that the South Korean government seems to consistently use.

Think the main undesirable thing is the name overlap with the Japanese article for their respective holiday, but I think not a big deal. Btw, choosing "Korea" for the disambig because NK kinda celebrates it too on the same day, although not officially. toobigtokale (talk) 16:09, 3 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
