Meh, don't really like football or hotdogs, there's beer I guess.

10,000? Impressive.

Does it bother anyone else that this is for "foreigners only"?

Their facebook page says they'll ask you for ID and if you're Korean then no beer or hotdogs for you.

Funny how an organization that calls itself "Community Korea" excludes Koreans.

Really? What kind of bizarre event is this? Who's operating the event... foreigners only? So you can't even go with your Korean wife or girlfriend? That's weird though... are they planning something, trying to get all of us together like that?

We all know how rules are enforced in this country. They're not. Remember when the bank beneath Gecko's went 'foreigner only'. That lasted about five hours. The sign is still up, but... Rolling Eyes

If (as already noted) they do try to enforce it at this festival they'll have to turn away a lot of mixed couples. Maybe that's their plan. Are they trying to further stigmatize inter-racial dating by turning away any Korean who tries to enter with a foreigner?

I wouldn't be surprised one little bit.
