During their attendance at the festival, which attracted millions of visitors, the Vietnamese artists also delivered performances in Kwangju and Buyeo cities.
The activities aimed to promote Vietnamese culture to Korans and bring popular folk melodies to Overseas Vietnamese people who are living in the host country.
