I found the test code for the 'FIRST_DAY_OF_WEEK' attribute in
tests>i18n>tests.py line 697.
It says that locale's formats take precedence over the default settings.
When I checked with several locale's formats files, I found that some of
them have the 'FIRST_DAY_OF_WEEK' attribute while others don't have it.
Since the locale's formats take precedence, you can't change the
'FIRST_DAY_OF_WEEK' attribute if the locale's file has it.
If it doesn't have the attribute, such as LANGUAGE_CODE = 'ko,' you can
simply change it in the settings.py.
Now I have found a bug. On the documentation, it says the following.
**FIRST_DAY_OF_WEEK**
A number representing the first day of the week. This is especially
useful when displaying a calendar. This value is only used when not using
format internationalization, or when a format cannot be found for the
current locale.
When I used USE_I18N=False, I couldn't use the FIRST_DAY_OF_WEEK as I
wanted.
I think this is because 'USE_L10N' was removed from v5.0 but is still used
in the 'get_format' function in django>utils>formats.py rather than
use_i18n.
I will keep working on this issue to remove the use_l10n part from the
get_format and follow the current documentation.
