The Korean Food Festival for foreigners from around the world is online from November 30th to December 6th
The Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs and Korean Food Promotion Institute will hold the ’2020 Korean Food Video Contest for Foreigners’ online from November 30th, 2020.
The slogan of this competition is #Play Korean Food, which was prepared to share the way people from various languages can enjoy Korean food in their daily lives, as it is difficult to go out due to Corona 19.
The contest is in two formats. It is a contest of ’cooking (cookbang)’ of Korean food and ’eating (mukbang)’. In particular, it is noteworthy that as an online contest targeting the world, the contest attracts foreigners’ participation by focusing on powerful influencers’ promotion on social media.
The total prize money is USD 37,000, and a total of 32 works will be selected and presented online after the result of summing the views and likes of the received video and a second evaluator screening.
The application period for the contest is from November 30 to December 6, and the official website provides support in seven languages.
