KIM JAEJOONG Takes Over Turkey
There is no stopping the kpop revolution. 600 fan tickets sold out in 30 minutes when the Korea Cultural Center announced they were getting sold on a first come first serve basis. 2000 additional requests were made in the following hours. What was going on? Kim Jaejoong was invited to open a fan meeting at Ankara University on Sunday.
The dramas are getting broadcast on a state owned television station. Thus the Hallyu craze was born in Turkey. "Korea Fans" is the most representative fan base. The Korea Cultural Center and Korean Embassy were swamped with fans on the hunt for tickets.
