Columbus ‘Squid Game?’ Local Korean festival to hold ‘Squid Game’-inspired activities

A local Korean festival is bringing international flavors and Squid Game-inspired fun to Columbus.

Taste of Korea, an event created by International Youth Fellowship Korea, will be held 11 a.m.-4 p.m. on Oct. 18. It will take place at the Karl Rd. Baptist Church, which is located at 5750 Karl Rd.

While the event, which is free to attend, plans to offer a wide-variety of Korean food for purchase and even hands-on cultural activities (some, but not all, of which will be free) the most intriguing on its slate is Taste of Korea’s Squid Game experience.

Obviously the festival’s Squid Games event–which is billed as family friendly–probably won’t include that harsh of a penalty for losing.
