For many Filipinos this year, fangirling over their favorite Korean artists, K-dramas, and K-pop hits was what kept their minds off the stress and anxiety brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic. Even from miles away, these Hallyu stars comforted the viewers from this side of the world through their projects and even just their social media updates or vlogs.
It's been a wonderful year for K-dramas, evident in popular Filipino favorites like Crash Landing on You, Itaewon Class, The King: Eternal Monarch, It's Okay to Not be Okay, The World of the Married, Flower of Evil, and Start-Up.
We've gotten to know many of them over the past months we've been under quarantine. That's why this Christmas, it gave us a warm-and-fuzzy feeling as we got glimpses of how some of these celebrities are celebrating the holiday season and how they've decorated their Christmas trees.
Check out the gallery below for some of these Korean celebrities' holiday photos:
