Korean Festival hits Adelaide - Nov 14



A taste of Asia is coming to town this weekend for the fifth annual Korean Culture and Food Festival.

Rundle Park will come alive this Saturday (November 14) in a flurry of traditional dance performances, live music, taekwondo and hapkido exhibitions and kimchi making demonstrations.

There will be 16 marquees offering Korean food and drinks, as well as a rep from the Korean tourism bureau handing out information about the country.

Event organiser Chong Soon Lee says a crowd of up to 3000 are expected to attend the festivities, including many of Adelaide’s 4000-plus members of the Korean community such as Joonhee Ko and Yeryn Nah (pictured).

“We Koreans are growing here in SA so we want to share our culture and food with the community,” she says.

“We have a rich culture and delicious food as most people already know.”
