[K-Correspondent] Encountering APEC host city Gyeongju at special exhibition in Bangkok

Gyeongju, the capital of the ancient kingdom of Silla, "the museum without walls", with its deep history and culture, is known for UNESCO World Heritage Sites such as the Bulguksa Temple and Seokguram Grotto.

The southeastern city is also the host of the (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation) APEC summit in October.

For today's 'K-Correspondent' we go over to not Gyeongju but Bangkok as the charm of the Korean city is being showcased at a special exhibition in the capital of Thailand.

We now connect to Lee Sunju , Director of the Korean Cultural Center in Thailand to hear more about this event. Hello Director Lee!

Q1. Please introduce yourself and the exhibition you are currently hosting in Bangkok.

Q2. Gyeongju was the capital of the Silla Kingdom for nearly a thousand years and is a city known for numerous UNESCO world heritage sites. What is it about the city's charm that you want Thai visitors to learn about?

Q3. Going a little bit more into detail, what's special about this exhibition and is there any particular part you'd like to recommend to visitors?

Q4. Thai culture is deeply influenced by Buddhism. What do you think it means to Thais to see this exhibition showcasing Korea's Buddhist heritage?

Q5. What has been the response by local visitors? What did they learn the most and find impressive about Gyeongju through the exhibition?

Q6. For how long will the exhibition run and do you have any other programs or events coming up that you want to share?

Thank you very much for connecting with us today Director Lee and for your efforts in showcasing the beautiful city of Gyeongju and Korea to the Thai people.
