This year, the Korean cultural festival will be held again in Kungsträdgården, which has been organized every year since 2016, with the exception of the pandemic. Last year, the festival was visited by 40,000 people. Ahead of this year's festival, which takes place on August 24, interest is greater than ever, and even more visitors are expected. Speaking to Mitti, project manager Kyongjae Lee says:
Normally, we have fewer than 20 booths. This year, we will have almost 30, and not all applicants were able to participate.
