Korea in Motion Opening ceremony 2013 [Buzz Korea]

Korea in motion festival is celebrated every year in the month of September to promote Korean performances and KPop culture. Various platforms and activities are used to promote this event. During this entire event all the Korean performances can be watched with half price with much more discounts. Every performance is amazing as I have been to almost all the performances yet I wanted to watch it once more if I had a chance. Last Year I was the one who performed flash mob with other K Supporters on KOINMO stage and believe me that was amazing. So I had great expectations with this ceremony.

It was an awesome evening with a beautiful weather when I along with 13 other friends was invited to attend the opening ceremony of KOINMO festival 2013. It was a great opportunity to get together before the end of summer vacations with our families sharing some foods. So we celebrate it as a one day picnic along the nice location's cheonggye stream. The program was well arranged with its seating background and entrance the location was carefully selected at its best. Many foreigners from all around the world were the guests of KOINMO opening ceremony. Every one there at the spot was excited to watch some thrilling Korean performances. The weather was amazing at the beginning which further converted into a rainy evening at the mid of the show. A managing director of KTO was the chief guest of the show. 

At the start of program the attention of the participants was attracted by some quiz and prices distribution. The MC asked few simple questions about the KOINMO events and the right answers were awarded with gift packs. 
Right after that was the performance of musical Hwarang, although they were not quite impressive as it seemed they were over acting however the excitement for other performances was enough to stay at seat. Next performance was the traditional and advanced Korean dance, "SACHOOM" and that was amazing. It was raining when they started performance which increased with the passage of time. As we don't have umbrella so we have to rushed to the nearby shelter. However a large number of people were still there covering themselves with plastic coats and umbrellas. Hats off to the performers as they were still performing in heavy rain.. 

The performance of Drum cats was the most appreciated performance of the evening. They really win the hearts of audience. Some young couple enjoyed this show in rain without umbrella. I along with my friends was at a little distance but still it was visible. 
Just after the drum cats the most awaited performance of the night take place and that was the performance of K.pop stars MBLAQ before their performance they were awarded as the honorary ambassador of KTO for the year 2012.  Their performance was just superb as the audience stand up and those who were on their way to workplace stop for a while to watch this unique group while singing.

This amazing show came to end with lots of lovely performances. It was the time to go back home as the rain was over. Looking forward for some more nice opportunities.. J
