The 18th "Together Day" kicked off in Ansan, South Korea on May 17, aiming to promote cultural exchange and integration between South Koreans and foreigners in the country.

As the only county-level unit from China participating in the intangible cultural heritage exhibition, Yantai's Fushan district attracted over a thousand South Korean visitors to its more than 30 exhibits, including sand bowls, Fushan cherries, and ancient-style brushes.

That evening, representatives from various embassies in South Korea visited the booth to listen to interpreters tell folk stories from the Jiaodong region.

All Fushan exhibits will be permanently housed in the Ansan World Cultural Experience Hall after the event, establishing a dedicated exhibition area showcasing Jiaodong culture in South Korea.

"These exhibits are not just static displays but dynamic windows for cultural dialogue," the event organizers stated.
