They are The Heeren, 313@Somerset, Knightsbridge and Mandarin Gallery.
These locations were initially among seven places buskers were told they could not perform at due to public safety concerns following the Halloween crush on Oct 29 in Seoul's Itaewon clubbing district. More than 150 revellers died.
Buskers can perform at the four locations every day in December between 10am and 10pm. However, on Christmas Eve, they can busk only from 10am to 7pm there.
Restrictions were eased after an engagement session on Tuesday between the National Arts Council (NAC), the police and members of the busking community.
Earlier this month, buskers were told they were not allowed to perform outside seven Orchard Road malls on Fridays and Saturdays from 7pm to 10pm in December due to public safety concerns.
