In Busan: Taste ASEAN with ASEAN-ROK Food Street

In celebration of the upcoming ASEAN-ROK Commemorative Summit, Busan will offer an international feast at the ASEAN-ROK Food Street from November 15 to 27 within the area of Norimaru in Jeonpo-dong. The ASEAN-ROK Food Street aims to provide visitors with the chance to try and experience diverse authentic food and culture from the 10 ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) members: Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Vietnam, Brunei, Singapore, Indonesia, Cambodia, Thailand, and the Philippines.

The festival’s main program is the ASEAN Food Pop-up Store that sells delicious local dishes from the ten ASEAN member states. Other noteworthy events include ASEAN-ROK Contents Zone that displays goods and products from ASEAN states, ASEAN Photo Zone, and ASEAN-ROK Flea Market.

Visitors can enter the festival venue free of charge, but must purchase separate tickets used as vouchers to buy food from the food pop-up store. Take note that these tickets can only be used at the food pop-up store, whereas other services and events, such as food trucks and the flea market, accept cash.
