SEOUL, May 11 (AJU PRESS) - Every year on the 10th day of the third lunar month, Vietnam commemorates Hung Kings, the legendary founders of the nation.

This year, the Vietnamese community and its Korean friends organized an event to mark the day for the first time in Korea, showcasing the deep cultural ties between the two countries.

The event featured a reenactment of the Hung Kings memorial ritual, honoring the Vietnamese people's ancestors. It was followed by a collaborative fashion show presenting the elegance of traditional clothings of Korea and Viet Nam and traditional music performances.
