Jimmy Carr cancels Asia tour

U.K. comedian Jimmy Carr, set to perform in Seoul March 31, has canceled his Asia tour. Event co-organizer, A Comic Soul, cited delays in visa issuances for some countries. Due to his busy schedule, the tour could not be rescheduled. Refunds are available at the point of purchase.

“Jimmy is very disappointed in not being able to come to Seoul but hopes he will be able to return with his brand new show in the future as part of his next world tour,” a representative of A Comic Soul said.

Meanwhile, U.S. comedian Jim Gaffigan's Seoul April 2 appearance still seems to be set.

SAKorNet hosts braai in HBC

“The Workshop” in Seoul's Haebangchon (HBC) hosts a braai this Saturday. A braai is a South African style barbecue. The event organizer, the South Africans in Korea Network (SAKorNet), said the event is a warm-up to Freedom Day on April 27 and the general election on May 8.

SAKorNet is a volunteer organization that connects South Africans in Korea. It works closely with the South African Embassy to Korea but has no official association with the day-to-day duties of the embassy.
