Interesting article in today's
Korea Times about
upcoming festivals in Jeollanam-do. *cough* Wish they didn't feature the "Myeongnyang Japanese-Killing Festival" on the top of the page, though. That's one event I don't think I'll be taking in. Anyway, Girlfriend in Jeollanam-do wants to go to the Namdo Food Festival in Suncheon and the foreigner festival in Gwangju that weekend, and because of her I think I'm obliged to attend the one happening the week after:
The following weekend, from Oct. 15 through 19, is the Gwangju Kimchi Festival. Devoted to the country's representative side dish, it is a great opportunity for foreigners to be photographed doing whatever it is foreigners do when exposed to kimchi.
In other local news, there's a concert happening
tomorrow night (Saturday, 27th) September 30th, at Suncheon Jeil College, with the pop duo "
Da Vichi" (다비치). It will be at the
비봉광장, but I don't remember the time. If you're looking for something to do, maybe go check out a semi-popular singing act. Or stay home and wash your hair, I dunno.

What is this foreign festival that is going on here this weekend? I haven't heard or seen anything about this. Me and the lady are always looking for things to do around here, other than bars.
Not this weekend, it's the weekend of that Myeongnyang Festival in Jindo. It's October 12th at Chosun University, done through the GIC I think. I can't find the email about it now . . . maybe Mike will be along to post more details. They have foreign foods and performances, and I don't remember what else.
