Kwak Sung-Kyu, ambassador of the Republic of South Korea, hosted an Iftar dinner last week.
Pakistan Tourist Development Cooperation Chairman Zulfiqar Bukhar, who is also an adviser to the prime minister, was invited to the dinner as chief guest.
The event was attended by diplomats and guests from all walks of life, including representatives from the tourism industry, higher education and cultural sector.
“The Iftar dinner became special because various Korean food dishes were served,” said a guest from the National University of Modern Languages in Islamabad.
A student said he was interested in the K-Pop music competition and the Quiz on Korea, both of which are supported by the embassy.
“I felt that tourism, education and cultural exchange were underlying themes of the Iftar dinner,” said a Pakistani guest.
Ambassador Kwak Sung Kyu gave a short speech at the end of the event, thanking the guests for attending and wishing all a good fasting season with the words of ‘Ramadan Kareem’.
