‘Spring in Joseon’ Goes To Davao On April 29-30

The Korean Cultural Center (KCC) brings “Spring in Joseon” to Davao City on April 29 and 30 at SM Lanang Premier Fountain Court.

This year’s Korea Festival is hosted by the Korean Embassy–Korean Cultural Center, in partnership with SM Lanang Premier.

With a wide range of Korean food and drinks and traditional activities, the festival will take you back to the old Korea. It will be as if you are in an episode of sageuk  (a Korean historical drama)!

Spring in Joseon marks the beginning of present-day Korea.

Get ready for an eventful weekend that will take you on a memorable journey as you experience the rich culture of Korea! 

There will be a lot of activity booths that are free for everyone to enjoy. From traditional Korean spring activities, like beongseonhwa (a kind of flower) nail dye to playing traditional Korean games like neolttwigi (Korean seesaw), everyone has something to look forward to!

The two-day festival will bring Korea’s tradition and history to Davao. Of course, you’ll also get to enjoy traditional Korean food like hwajeon (flower pancake). There will be aesthetic spots for picture-taking.

Get ready to be entertained by Korean traditional performances, including Korean songs called pungmulnori (percussion ensemble) and pansori (solo musical storytelling). There will also be a special performance by P-Pop star and breakthrough artist Mona Gonzales.

Talented Davaoeños will showcase their skills to this year’s “Everyone’s KPOP: Davao” on the April 29 and the grand winner will get the chance to perform again on stage on the May 30. This KCC-hosted contest also marks the first-ever K-Pop contest in the region.
