I couldn't hear the bells of the New Year rang at Bosingak, Seoul because of Corona 19, but I don't think the feeling of welcoming the new year was different from any other year.
Reporter Jeong Hye-kyung delivers the first images of the new year filled with hope.
<Reporter> The
bell to announce the beginning of this year rang online, not Bosingak.
The new year has begun for the first time in 67 years due to concerns about corona infection.
[You can hear a cry, yeah!]
Taemyeong is'Heart', the first baby in the new year born healthy with 3.43kg.
Families who are unable to enter the delivery room take care of the baby on the screen and take over.
[Lim Seong-bin/Grandfather: My daughter-in-law seems to have suffered a year while taking care of her health thoroughly and being careful about coronavirus.
I'm so great and very proud.]
Merchants are eager to live without knowing that the New Year is bright.
[Kang Hansik/Fish Market Merchant: The end of the year will pass soon.
(It's been over now, sir.) It's been over.
It was difficult last year.
I wonder if it will escape from the corona this year, and I have a lot of anticipation.] I wish
the New Year's wishes by stacking the first strawberries I brought in this year at the store.
[Choi Yoo-hyun / Fruit and Vegetable Market Merchant: This year was a very difficult year.
In 2021, I hope that strawberry farming and sales are good, and all the people are healthy.] The
first cargo plane in the new year, loaded with IT equipment and semiconductors, has emerged for Shanghai, China.
The new year of 2021, dreaming of hope, has begun.
