Abstract
The spread of COVID-19 and the implementation of various preventive measures, such as social distancing, have led to considerable changes in the distribution of populations in urban areas. However, these changes could vary depending on the demographic composition, environmental features, and socioeconomic characteristics of the areas. In this regard, this study examines the levels of segregation in two Chinese neighbourhoods in Seoul, Garibong-dong and Daerim 2-dong. We evaluate daily changes in the Korean and Chinese populations between November, 2019 and October, 2020, and the result demonstrates that the two Chinese communities are affected differently. It suggests that the impact of COVID-19 is not spatially homogeneous in urban areas, not even within the so-called ethnic communities.
