Winter vibes in August? Yep, that’s what it felt like when the Korea Tourism Organization brought the Korea Travel Fiesta 2025 to the Mall of Asia Music Hall last August 30 and 31. For two whole days, the venue turned into a mini slice of Korea with booths, performances, and even K-beauty demos.


The booths were a big hit, especially for travelers looking for deals. Various travel promotions were up for grabs, which made planning a Korea trip feel even more tempting. And since Korea isn’t just about sights but also style, Korean beauty products had their spotlight too. Live demos showed how these products work, and honestly, it was fun seeing people try them out and instantly glow.

One special focus this year was Gangwon, which they highlighted as the ultimate winter destination. Think skiing, snow activities, and those dreamy snowy landscapes you usually only see in K-dramas. The MelaSon Family joined a talk session where they shared more about it, and it really made you want to start packing for winter already.


Of course, it wouldn’t be the Korea Travel Fiesta without performances to hype up the crowd. Artix opened the stage with energetic dances, followed by the cast of “Show Musical Dream High” with a musical number that felt straight out of the theater. K-Tigers then wowed everyone with a mix of martial arts and powerful dance. And the cherry on top? Kim Myung Soo (L) as the main act—definitely the moment fans were waiting for.

All in all, it was two days of culture, fun, and a whole lot of Korea in one spot. If you missed it, well… let’s just say you missed a pretty cool sneak peek into what Korea has to offer!
