The Korean Embassy in Sri Lanka hosted its second consecutive ‘Korea Corner’ at the Charity Bazaar, organised by the Foreign Affairs Ministry in collaboration with the Good Market at Racecourse on Saturday (7).
The event, a celebration of Korean culture, offered a rich array of authentic Korean cuisine and cultural performances.
Among the popular dishes at the event were Kimchi, the traditional Korean fermented vegetable dish, and Tteokbokki, the spicy rice cakes, both of which sold out almost immediately. Bulldak ramen (spicy noodles) and a variety of other Korean snacks also saw high demand, highlighting the growing appreciation for Korean food in Sri Lanka.
Beyond the culinary delights, the event also provided a cultural experience. Visitors were treated to performances of traditional Korean music, while a country parade showcased the beauty of Korean traditional attire. This combination of food, music, and cultural displays brought the vibrancy of Korean heritage to life, fostering deeper cultural exchange and understanding between Korea and Sri Lanka.
The proceeds from the Bazaar will be donated to the M H Omar Liver Care Facility at Colombo North Centre for liver diseases, continuing the tradition of supporting charitable causes while promoting cultural diplomacy.
