Kate's first plan to dance in Seoul was derailed by the pandemic. Two years later, she finally made what she called the "Asian tango pilgrimage", and she has been returning to Seoul regularly ever since. She shares why she loves dancing in Seoul, the reason behind tango's rapid development there, how the scene is changing due to the rise of competitive dancers, and some funny anecdotes about the tango culture in Seoul and Busan.
This is the original version of the interview, conducted in Mandarin while I was visiting Taiwan. An English-dubbed version is available in the podcast feed.
Notes:
Intro & outro music: Buscándote (Osvaldo Fresedo, 1941)
