Some foreign students even made portraits with hollow-carved faces for the audiences to take photos, which attracted many people watching and taking pictures.
During the performance part, an exhibition of the costumes of 28 countries initiated the audiences’ interests at the beginning of the performance. The Korean students’ dances received great ovation.

It not only enhanced the communication among the teachers and students from several universities, but also served as a platform for the cultural interaction and exchange between the Chinese and foreign students.
