K-Culture Month
From 28 October - 16 November 2020
K-Culture Month will include a series of events brought together through the theme of Korean culture by the KCCUK.
Our K-Culture Month has now arrived and you can look forward to a series of both live and streamed events that has something for everyone. From Korean films that we are sure you’ll love, to incredible music to contemporary art as well.
This series will showcase a marvellous array of Korean talents through well-established festivals, events and due to the current Covid-19 situation, the KCC has also prepared special online platforms for you to enjoy from the comfort of your home. K-Culture month will include visual arts, film and music and you can find out more about the events down below.
