Mexican fans celebrate Korean culture in Seoul and Mexico City

Thousands of Mexican supporters gathered in Seoul’s Gwanghwamun Square during the World Cup match against South Korea, cheering a 1‑0 victory while noting the warm reception from local fans. "I'm very grateful for the atmosphere; the Koreans welcomed us very well," said Mexican office worker Aimé. The event featured large screens, drums, and spontaneous cultural exchanges between the two fan bases.

The afternoon program includes K‑pop dance covers, Korean food stalls, a themed bazaar, fan‑meet activities, and workshops such as learning to write one’s name in Hangul.
