We called the prize ‘The Yung Min Yoo Experience’. Our idea was to do our bit to boost attendances by trying to attract a few ‘newbies’ to join us as Wham regulars by giving them the full VIP experience that our recent visitor from South Korea enjoyed. To be in with a chance of winning,…

To Here, From South Korea…
