City of London festival is one of the oldest art festivals in the UK and in partnership with the Korean Cultural Centre the organisers have decided on Seoul as its theme for this year’s event.
South Korea’s top classical musicians will be presenting their talent on UK soil from the end of June up till mid July but there’s also a dash of b-boy to compliment the different richness of Korea’s musical talent.
