Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Riptortus pedestris sighting in Gwangju on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 17th most-seen of the 20 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 60%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
November
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Riptortus pedestris in Gwangju on a given day, against under 5% in April–June and September–October, the lowest months. That is one of Gwangju's driest months, with about 50 mm of rain against 290 mm in July. March and December–January have too few records to rate.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Riptortus pedestris sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Riptortus pedestris is recorded against all the insects logged in Gwangju (5 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
