[4K] Christmas in Korea | Seoul Walking Tour at Myeong-dong Shopping Street | #christmas #korea

Christmas Day in South Korea South Korea is the only East Asian nation to recognise Christmas (Sung Tan Jul) as a national holiday. Unlike Seollal or Chuseok, Christmas is not a big traditional holiday, so most Koreans don’t travel back to their hometown to celebrate.
