On December 1, 2024 the CMC team held their first cultural showcase; showing the diverse aspects of South Korea. Boards were put up on tables for guests to read and learn more about South Korea. Across these boards, the team had different booths set up that guests could also do something hands-on. These booths included folding bokjeomoni's (a traditional korean handbag usually used to store money in) and ddakji's (a traditional korean toy commonly played with others). On top of these decorative booths, the team also laid out three traditional korean games inlcuding ddakji, gongi, and jjegi. Guests were able to let out their energy as they played these games with our volunteers help. To our team, this was a very successful first event as many guests came and expressed their interest in the culture of South Korea. Though the team was tired at the end, they all were proud of the work they had accomplished in spreading the culture of South Korea to the muliticultural world.

In celebration of the coming Lunar New Year in South Korea, we hosted a part 2 version of our cultural showacase of South Korea. Our event this time was held at the San Jose Library, another local library around our area. Because of the huge turnout last event, we had full confidence that this would be just as successful, if not even better. Thankfully, our expectations were met. Within mintues, children and families came swarming in, excited about this event. Constant laughs and smiles arose despite the smaller room with Kpop playing in the background. Despite the cramped space, everyone enjoyed theirselves and the fun activies led by our hardworking volunteers. We offered booth stations of folding ddakji and bok jumeoni, two popular visits by children. In the middle of the room, we laid out ggongi and jaegichagi for people to try and play as well. Our informational tri-fold boards were also standing against the wall, catching your attention as you walked into the room. All in all, thank you to everyone who came to our event and for bringing us much joy in our work. Thank you also to the San Jose Library for being such a great host. Catch you next time!
