EXPLORE KOREA FESTIVAL IN SINGAPORE
I am delighted to invite all of you to the fun and exciting events of Korea Festival 2008. This year's Festival is one of the largest cultural events in Singapore to have showcased Korean culture, in both scale and diversity.
The Festival brings to you Korean food, K-Pop, classical music, film and other diverse aspects of Korean culture. To the fans of the Korean Wave (Hallyu), the Festival will provide a good opportunity to meet famous K-Pop singers.
