Sa Pa poised to host Korean Cultural Day
VOV.VN - Korean Culture Day will be held in the northern town of Sa Pa on October 24, with a range of prestigious artists from both Vietnam and the Republic of Korea (RoK) participating in the event.
The occasion has been co-organised by the Republic of Korean Cultural Centre and the Lao Cai Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism, with the aim of popularising aspects of culture and tourism of both the RoK and Vietnam.
Furthermore, the event also marks the successful nature of the fight against the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic by both nations as a contribution to promoting their close friendship ties.
Some of the domestic and foreign artists taking part in the function include Hansara, K-pop dance troupe The Acode, Dan bau (monochord) artist Le Hoai Phuong, and girl band Co La.
Moreover, Korean Cultural Day also offers the chance for local artists to put on unique performances that feature aspects of northwestern culture.
Suk Jin-young, director of the Republic of Korean Cultural Centre, said the event serves as a meaningful activity amid the complicated developments of COVID-19 globally, something which has had a negative impact on people worldwide.
It is hoped that the occasion will further boost the relationship between the two countries, especially increasingly the friendship between the RoK and Lao Cai province.
