📖 Excerpt from the Wikipedia article
The Jeju Queen Culture Festival (Korean: 제주퀴어문화축제) is an annual LGBTQ festival held in Jeju City, Jeju Province, South Korea since 2017. The festival aims to increase the visibility of the LGBTQ community in Jeju and spread messages of solidarity and inclusion in the face of discrimination and prejudice. It features a range of events, including parades, cultural performances, exhibitions, and lectures, and serves as a platform for both LGBTQ individuals and allies to come together and raise awareness about human rights. Despite facing continued opposition from conservative religious groups and other detractors, the festival has persisted each year and has become an important opportunity to spark dialogue on diversity and social acceptance in the Jeju region.
