Korean Culture Month at Foyles

Korean Culture Month 2022 will be celebrated this October at Foyles, Charing Cross Road.

This event will bring some of Korea’s most exciting and accomplished authors to a new audience. Throughout the store, Foyles and the Korean Cultural Centre UK will be displaying Korean traditional cultural items so visitors can see and experience a taste of Korea while they browse Foyle's selection of Korean literature.

We've also prepared some exciting performances and cultural workshops. At these events held at Foyles throughout October, you'll be able to see influential people who are part of the Korean wave. We hope you can join us as we celebrate Korea’s rich culture.
