Love Korean pop music? Not Korean? Well then, you may already know about Saturday's second annual "K-Pop Contest for Non-Koreans." We felt the need to put that in quotations just so you know it's the actual name, not just a somewhat questionable (yet wholly accurate) description that we came up with. Produced by Radio Hankook, the contest is open to all Non-Korean U.S. residents, age 12 years and older, and is patterned after an event originally held last year at the Knutzen Family Theatre in Federal Way. Basically, non-Koreans take the stage and bust out Korean pop songs, in competition, for the delight of all in attendance. According to hype the contest was "originally created to bring together the many different ethnic communities of Puget Sound," becoming, "a meeting place for people who share one common interest; their love for Korean Pop Music and the Korean culture."
