Lou Hoang said he really likes spicy rice cakes and wants to try them in Korea.
However, while traveling to a foreign country, because he didn't know Korean, he mistakenly ordered cold noodles and missed the opportunity to try the original spicy rice cakes.
From then on, Lou Hoang was determined to learn the language and learn more about Korean culture.
Singer LyLy revealed that she often cooks Korean food at home, especially kimbap because it is simple and delicious.
Amee performed songs with a sweet voice and attractive choreography, due to limited time, she could not share her story with diners.
Noo Phuoc Thinh performs the song Destiny , a song with the melody of a Korean movie soundtrack.
The male singer said he was very happy that many diners came to experience the festival despite the bad weather, which shows Vietnamese people's interest and love for Korean cuisine.
On October 20, the kimchi salting workshop and K-pop Dance cover contest will take place at the 2024 Korean Food Festival .
