A luminous Christmas tree with various decorations stands in solitude in the streets of Myeong-dong, central Seoul.

Under the tightened Level 2.5 social distancing rules in Seoul, indoor activities have a curfew of 9 p.m., which traces the views of empty streets.

In an effort to curb further spread of the new coronavirus, the year-end season is expected to present unprecedented sights of Christmas.
