It's a chaotic end of the year due to the impeachment, but Christmas has come without fail.

They bake cookies for their families, choose Christmas decorations at marketplaces in the city center, and enjoy small happiness in their own way.

Reporter Lee Kwang-yeon covered it.

Christmas to complete a snowman-shaped cookie.

The process that takes nearly two hours to bake in the oven is not as easy as you think, but I am proud to think that my nieces and nephews who don't usually take care of them will like it.

[Lee Sung Ho / Haengshin-dong, Goyang-si: Isn't it a difference of care? Even if I do something small, my little nieces and nephews remember it. I heard you gave it to me, but I thought it would last a long time. // I'm satisfied, but I hope they like it a lot.]

In the middle of Jamsil, Seoul, there is a marketplace that brings Christmas in Europe as it is.

They capture each other's images in front of the store, which is all red, and they also take off decorations and handmade orgols attached to the tree.

Even on a long-distance outing, I'm excited and excited like a child for Christmas with my mother.

[Kim Hye-bin / Areum-dong, Sejong-si: I'm going to decorate a tree at my house and I'm here to buy some moon ornaments. I'm cooking with my mom and I came to see a pretty plate.]

The marketplace, which was visited by 240,000 people last year, has built more than 40 stores this year, and you can experience various European Christmas cultures.

[Lee So-jung / Lotte Department Store Marketing Planning Team: We prepared a lot for various age groups to enjoy the experience. There's a photo zone that I like in my 20s and 30s, but for 4050 people to come and enjoy it comfortably...]


The year-end holiday, which has shrunk more than ever due to high prices and impeachment, is small, but we are spending Christmas in our own way.
