What does the evidence cover?
Use a designated site, such as the lawn in front of Jamsil underpass, rather than any convenient lawn. The notice allows shade tents March–November 2026 and explicitly extends September 1–November 30 hours to 09:00–22:00. It allows picnic mats year-round; same-day access still needs checking.

|---|---|---|
| A designated Jamsil site The operator's Jamsil section lists the lawn in front of Jamsil underpass (잠실나들목 앞 잔디밭) among its permitted shade-tent sites. | Works · Official source |

| 2026 season and temporary hours The season runs March 1–November 30, 2026. An explicit temporary extension gives September 1–November 30 hours as 09:00–22:00; the notice's base schedule still lists 19:00 for March–May and September–November. Follow the dated extension for that period and recheck before December 1. | Partly · Official source |

| Picnic mat versus shade tent The notice distinguishes year-round mat use from seasonal tents and gives a shade-tent size of about 2 m by 2 m. A mat's rule does not authorise a tent outside a designated site or season. | Works · Official source |

The park authority’s 2026 shade-tent notice lists two Jamsil sites, including the lawn in front of Jamsil underpass, with a tent size of about 2 m by 2 m. It extends tent hours to 09:00–22:00 from September 1 to November 30, 2026, and allows mats year-round.
Checked against the official page on 2026-10-20. No visit or booking was made.
D3: The park authority’s own 2026 notice for its Jamsil sites. The extension takes precedence during its stated period; it does not establish same-day access, access after November 30, 2026 or rules for another year.
