Korean food festival Delhi: what is on

The food side is the main draw. Also, there is an open kitchen with live demonstrations by the Delhi restaurant Kori’s. A K-Market brings vendors such as SEELA, Khuben, ARIH, K-Friends and Nongsim India, so you can buy Korean food products at pop-up stores.

A separate zone called JUMAK serves Korean rice wine with food, in partnership with the Delhi restaurant GOONG. Because it involves alcohol, check age and entry rules on the day.

Beyond the food

The programme also covers culture and beauty. Visitors can try on a hanbok against a themed backdrop. However, there are personal colour analysis and Korean style makeup sessions as well.

For families, traditional games such as Jegichagi, Ddakji, Gonggi and Tuho are on the list. Meanwhile, the stage hosts a K-pop cover dance contest, a K-Food Mask Singer contest and a performance by the group DIVA-X. Indian traditional dance and Taekwondo shows round it out.

Planning your visit

In short, the Daily Jagran says entry is free and that you should book through BookMyShow. However, The Week’s report does not mention fees at all. So it is safest to confirm on the booking page before you go.

The contests need separate sign up. Registration is through Google Forms reached by QR codes at the venue, as per the Daily Jagran. Since the tastings are free but limited to three slots a day, arriving early on a weekend is sensible.
