Interested in K-food? K-pop? K-Culture in general? Look no further and join W Korea in New Malden for the World Korean Food Festival that’s happening, this summer, on 27 July 2024, at the New Malden Methodist Church from 12 noon to 7 pm.
For all the K-entertainment enthusiasts, we will have an array of opportunities for everyone to be performers from a KPOP Random Play Dance to solo vocalists, and solo and group dancers, to a taekwondo performance! So prepare your snazziest outfit and dancing shoes on!
For all the food lovers, we have prepared a kimchi demonstration section to get you all to be on the same level as any other native Korean! There will also be K-food & K-snack stalls on site, so do not worry, we will ensure that everyone, and the foodies, especially, will get their full day’s worth of experiencing a snippet of the K-food culture, with us, here in New Malden!
K-POP merchandise (albums and other novelty items) will be on-site for all the K-POP lovers looking to purchase some of their favourite items (maybe even handmade ones)!
It’ll be an event you won’t want to miss out on! We hope to see as many excited and enthusiastic faces there!
