Mado-myeon Hosts Concert with Multicultural Families and Foreign Workers

The Residents' Autonomous Committee of Mado-myeon, Hwaseong City, held a Mado-myeon Residents' Autonomous Concert on the 10th at the Mado-myeon Office area, bringing together multicultural families and foreign workers.

The event was successful, drawing approximately 500 participants including multicultural families and foreign workers.

The event was held in three parts. The first part focused on programs to help multicultural families and foreign residents understand Korean culture, including traditional costume experiences, tuho (a Korean game of throwing wooden sticks), and folk game experiences such as jegichagi (footbag kicking).

The second part that followed was a Residents' Autonomous presentation where participants showcased the skills they had honed over the past year through residents' autonomous programs.

Notably, in the third part held for the harmony of all local residents, a singing competition featured outstanding vocal performance by Boothichang from a multicultural family, who sang "Fate" by Lee Sun-hee, drawing great response from residents.

Cha In-gi, head of Mado-myeon, said, "Mado-myeon has approximately 1,400 foreign workers, and multicultural families are increasing," and added, "Through consideration and attention, we will create a Mado-myeon where we live together with multicultural families and foreign workers."
