한국관련퀴즈경연대회 Quiz on Korea와 K-Pop경연대회인 K-Pop NZ Festival이 5월부터 본격적으로 진행된다.
작년에 뉴질랜드의 마이클 스미스씨가 전세계에서 온 쟁쟁한 경쟁자들을 모두 물리치고 Quiz on Korea 최종우승자가 되었고, 쌍둥이 듀오 Twinz가 K-Pop 경연대회 최종결선에 진출하여 World Talent상을 수상하였다.
주뉴질랜드 대사관에서는 우리 뉴질랜드에서 우승자가 나올 수 있도록 제2의 마이클 스미스씨를 발굴해 주길 바라며 많은 키위들이 이번 행사에 참가할 수 있도록 주변에 널리 홍보해 주시면 감사하겠다고 전해왔다.
