Latin night set for Saturday
By John Redmond
Korean members of global networking site InterNations will meet for a night of Latin culture at SOMOS, a cafe near Hongik University in western Seoul, Saturday.
“This is Seoul’s very unique and international place owned by two friends from Spain and Mexico,” the organizers said. “There you can find a variety of authentic food and drink from Latin America and Spain.”
Guests can enjoy delicious Peruvian delicacies including ceviche and learn how to dance to salsa music.
“Never been dancing or not sure about dancing? Not a problem. There will be live music session by a Latin-Jazz band called Cubanism,” the organizers said.
Founded by Germans Malte Zeeck and Phillip von Plato in 2007, InterNations organizes activities in 390 cities around the world.
“In 2015 over 1.25 million members attended almost 40,000 of its events and activities, a growth of 25 percent compared with 2014,” InterNations stated.
There will be a 10,000 won fee, which covers the dance lesson and the live band.
Group members will also get a 50 percent discount on dinner.
