Korean legendary breakdancing team Jinjo Crew delivered a polished performance that left the audience hungry for more at the Harare International School on Tuesday.

The event was attended by a diverse crowd, including children, dancers, artists, and diplomats.

 

It marked the perfect conclusion to the year-long celebration of 30 years of diplomatic relations between Zimbabwe and South Korea.

A local dance group, Bantu, opened the show with an exhilarating performance, dancing to Julian King’s “One by One”.

Their fusion of afro and breakdancing left the audience in awe.

 

Several speeches were given before Jinjo Crew took the stage.

Breakdancer Fungie Chana from Break Nation expressed his gratitude to the Embassy of the Republic of Korea for organising such an event and allowing cultural exchange between local artists and the invited guests.

Ambassador of the Republic of Korea to Zimbabwe Park Jae Kyung said it is important for Zimbabwe and South Korea to collaborate.

“The events that the embassy has held this year were significant to both Zimbabwe and Korea in that they honour one of their main goals, which is to create a platform that allows for cultural exchange,” he said.

The Jinjo Crew will be performing in Nairobi, Kenya, on Thursday.
