Osan Hosts Second Multicultural Harmony Festival

The Osan City Multicultural Family Support Center (Director Lee Byeong-hee) announced on the 15th that it will hold the Second Osan City Multicultural Harmony Festival at the City Hall Plaza on the 20th of this month to commemorate the Fifth World Citizens' Day.

The Harmony Festival, themed around "kites," a traditional game played worldwide, will operate booths offering various kite-making experiences and cultural encounters from 14 different countries.

Each country-specific booth will be decorated to allow visitors to experience the traditions and cultures of each nation, including food, games, costumes, and music, welcoming citizens' participation.
Additionally, the center will operate consultation booths covering diverse fields including nationality, legal, health, and employment counseling for multicultural families and migrant workers. Relevant organizations that provide valuable services to multicultural residents and migrants will participate and operate promotional booths.

A center official stated, "The cheerful sports day featuring traditional world games is open to all Osan residents and features unique events," and added, "The traditional dance performances by marriage migrant women organized by country have been one of the most popular events for three consecutive years, and it will be a wonderful opportunity to experience unique cultures."
