The event is part of activities in celebration of the 31st anniversary of diplomatic relations between Vietnam and South Korea.

The program covers a wide range of activities, including a fashion show hosted by the Sen Viet Club, a Vietnamese-South Korean singing competition, and a performance of traditional musical instruments.

Participants can also enjoy traditional Vietnamese folk games such as shuttlecock competition, cheraw dance, and charity activities.

Vietnamese regional specialties will also be offered at the event, as well as the conical hat drawing and the lucky draw for souvenirs.

The program is expected to be a fulfilling and enjoyable event for the Vietnamese community in Korea.

The previous event was organized by the Vietnamese Buddhist Cultural Center in Hanoi, the Association for Liaison with Overseas Vietnamese, and the State Commission for Overseas Vietnamese of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Currently, more than 200,000 overseas Vietnamese live, work and study in South Korea, according to Mai Phan Dung, deputy head of the State Commission for Overseas Vietnamese.

Growing trade ties and the increase in the number of Vietnamese-Korean multicultural families in recent years have helped strengthen bilateral relations between the two nations.

Vietnam defeat Laos 2-0 in 2023 SE Asian Games men’s football

The Vietnamese, who won the gold medal in men’s football at the delayed 2021 SE Asian Games organized in Hanoi in May 2022, were expected to have an easy game, but they faced strong resistance from their Lao opponents and sometimes stayed in a deadlock at Prince Stadium in Phnom Penh. The junior Golden Stars got off to a great start in the second minute when Nguyen Van Tung headed the ball past Lao goalkeeper Solasak Thilavong into the net, following a good cross from Nguyen Thanh Nhan from the right side. With the early lead, coach Philippe Troussier’s team tried to reduce the match’s tempo, but moments of sloppy defending gave Laos some good chances. The remainder of the first half saw interesting back-and-forth attempts between the two teams.  Vietnam’s Nguyen Van Tung celebrates his opening goal in their match against Laos at the 2023 Southeast Asian Games in Phnom Penh, April 30, 2023.
