KoreAm’s Unforgettable After Party
It’s that time of year again where KoreAm Journal puts on a big gala to celebrate Korean American achievements. Unfortunately, the gala is sold out (I heard it’s Jay Park’s fault), but you can still get into the after party if you feel like possibly mingling/dancing with the likes of Amerie, Hines Ward, Sung Kang, Brian Tee, Leonardo Nam, Jay Park, Dia Frampton, etc. Here’s a lil’ blurb from KoreAm:
This year you can munch on delicious Korean-Mexican fusion tacos from the KOGI BBQ TRUCK, dance the night away to music provided by DJ A-LIST & DJ DO-FUNK, enjoy an OPEN BAR featuring HITE BEER and JINRO SOJU cocktails–all while partying with celebrities and VIP guests at the legendary Park Plaza Hotel.
Date: Saturday, Dec. 3, 2011
Time: 10:30 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. (immediately following the Unforgettable gala)
Venue: Park Plaza Hotel
