Abstract Despite government efforts since the extreme heatwave of 2018, heat-related casualties in Korea continue to increase, highlighting the need to reassess current policies. This study analyzes spatial differences in heat vulnerability between day and night in Seoul and examines mismatches between the demand and supply of heatwave response facilities to suggest policy implications. Using the IPCC vulnerability framework, climate exposure was calculated with S-DoT data, sensitivity was assessed through various social indicators, and adaptive capacity was measured by network-based accessibility to air-conditioned facilities. Analysis results revealed notable day-night differences. During the day, 119 districts were oversupplied and 6 undersupplied, whereas at night 74 were oversupplied and 58 undersupplied. This finding suggests heatwave response facilities are uniformly distributed by administrative districts, leading to spatial mismatches. This study contributes to the literature by identifying day-night differences in heat vulnerability and supply-demand mismatches. This study offers policy implications for allocating facilities where they are most needed.
