On one of the lesser frequented, but equally vast beaches of Busan, thousands of Koreans and a

mix of foreigners gathered to party at Busan’s International Rock Festival. Musicians from around the world to

ok to the stage to perform for a very diverse crowd of all ages. From my previous rock concert experiences, I wouldn’t have expected this one to be what it was: definitely a full family affair. Older women and men got their groove on around blankets *littered with empty soju bottles of course* at the back of the crowd, parents held their babies while rockin’ it out in a sweaty mob of fans, while dads taught their 3 year olds how to shoot roman candles.
And though it made for a grueling 9am camp departure with my students the next morning, it was amazingly entertaining to witness it all. This was one I couldn’t miss.
