안녕하세요~ The 2nd K-S Supporters Ceremony was held at Joyden Hall, Bugis+ last Tuesday to celebrate the appointment of K-S supporters. In addition, the event was also held in conjunction to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of the Korea-Singapore diplomatic relations.

The event was proudly graced by His Excellency Suh Chung-uh, Ambassador of the Republic of Korea, who presented the certificates to K-S supporters and gave a congratulatory speech to the participants. In his speech, he mentioned about the growing impact of Korean wave (K-wave) in Singapore which was “much stronger than expected”. He also emphasised the importance to make good use of various opportunities to promote Korean culture.

Performances during the event included the strong dance medley by STARREseconds, overall winner of the cover dance category for SGKpopcon 2015, and an exclusive performance by Ferlyn G prior to her upcoming solo debut.
 

To further promote friendship between Singapore and Korea, Quiz on Korea was organised to encourage participants to learn more about Korean culture. During the event, various booths were also set-up for participants to enjoy a photoshoot with Korean traditional costume, have a taste of Korean snacks and have a go at Korean traditional games.

Despite being a closed-door event, supporters of the Korean culture can still participate in the upcoming line of events organised and supported by The Embassy of Republic of Korea. This includes the Korean Film Festival 2015 which will be held between 23rd Oct and 1st Nov. During this festival, Shaw Theatres Lido will be showing various Korean movies.
