Though the object was to eat the fruit as quickly as possible, it was no doubt the quietest watermelon-eating session you're likely to hear in Korea.
This is watermelon season, and there were a few festivals this month. You've missed the ones in Changwon and Euiryeong, but there's still time to visit the one in Gochang. The 19th Gochang Watermelon Festival (고창수박축제) will take place on the 18th and 19th in Gochang county, Jeollabuk-do. A program is available here, in Korean; fireworks on Sunday at 9:30. If you're like me and enjoy fireworks but don't care about eating watermelon, you'd probably nonetheless like seeing the carved watermelons on display.
