The three shows were presented shortly after the Company’s success at the prestigious Blackpool Dance Festival, where they swept the British Championships again in both Ballroom and Latin Formations. Whether competing in London or performing in India, the internationally acclaimed ensemble consistently wowed audiences with its creative blend of standard ballroom and Latin styles. From the Waltz, Tango, and Quickstep to the Lindyhop and Samba, the student dancers surpassed cultural boundaries on the dance floor, show after show.

“It was truly spectacular. Every movement was executed beautifully, and the storytelling was so powerful that it kept me completely engaged throughout,” said media consultant Poonam Kashyap from the Indian Council for Cultural Relations, who partnered the performances.

Every performance by the BYU Ballroom Dance Company in India concluded with a standing ovation. Their respect for the country and genuine desire to connect were evident as the student dancers embraced the people and culture.

As the Company’s premiere performances in India, the shows filled theaters with standing ovations. Attendees left feeling mesmerized by the dedication and pure passion of the performances, with a newfound love for the art form. Many expressed appreciation for the opportunity to enjoy high-caliber performing arts with such cultural heritage at no cost.

Beyond the stage, the 32 dancers participated in meaningful cultural exchanges with classical Indian dancers from the illustrious Triveni Kala Sangam, and heartfelt interactions with mentally challenged patients at the Missionaries of Charity home in Old Delhi. These experiences fostered mutual understanding and strengthened connections between the visiting students and the people they met.

“All of us tried to coordinate and learn each other’s culture and traditions,” shared Acharya Jayalakshmi Eshwar, renowned head of the Bharatanatyam department at the dance institution. “It was like one family then we came together, exchanging our artistic ideas. It was very, very beautiful – a great experience.”

“India’s rich cultural heritage and extraordinary hospitality have made a lasting impression on our students and faculty,” said Curt Holman, artistic director of the Company. “The arts create connections that transcend language, reminding us that we have far more in common than we often realize.”

He added, “Our time in India has been life-changing for the students. Not only have they been able to share their dance talents, but they have gained a new perspective on life as they have personally connected with audience members. This will be a memory never to forget.”

“K-SUUL Pavilion” to Open for the First Time at the HKCEC on May 26-28

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 10 June 2026 – The National Tax Service of Korea (Commissioner: Lim Kwang-hyun), for the first time, opened the “K-SUUL Pavilion” at Vinexpo Asia[1], which was held for three days from May 26 to 28 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC).

The opening of the “K-SUUL Pavilion” was served as a key milestone in raising the global profile of Korean alcoholic beverages and expanding overseas exports.

At the inaugural “K-SUUL AWARDS” held by National Tax Service of Korea last December, 175 small and medium-sized liquor producers from across Korea submitted a total of 366 products. Following document screening and blind testing, 12 products were selected.

The award-winning liquors, selected through a fair judging process with the participation of Korean citizens, was introduced to the global market through this exhibition, marking their first step toward overseas expansion.

The “K-SUUL Pavilion” was operated through cooperation between the National Tax Service of Korea and the liquor industry and association (the Korea Alcohol and Liquor Industry Association). It was designed as an integrated promotional platform to strengthen the export competitiveness of Korean alcoholic beverages and develop overseas sales channels.

The “K-SUUL Pavilion” was operated with a total of 16 booths (display and tasting booths), and 12 companies — including winners of the K-SUUL AWARDS — participated to hold consultations with overseas buyers.

Participating companies ranged from traditional liquor breweries to regional soju producers and major liquor companies, showcasing the diverse spectrum of Korea’s alcoholic beverage industry on a single stage.

In addition to the booths operated by the 12 participating companies, a dedicated booth was set up exclusively to showcase the award-winning liquors, further highlighting the significance of the K-SUUL AWARDS.

At the venue, promotional videos of the award-winning liquors were screened, while English-language brochures and souvenirs were distributed to attract local buyers and visitors to raise awareness of Korean alcoholic beverages.

In addition, meetings with the organizers of Vinexpo Asia, overseas buyers, and distribution industry officials were also held to identify rapidly changing global liquor market trends and assess the overseas expansion potential of Korean alcoholic beverages.

Han Yeong-seok Fermentation Research Institute expressed gratitude for being given the opportunity to participate in the exhibition, saying, “It was meaningful to showcase our award-winning liquor, ‘Dohan Cheongmyeongju,’ on the same stage as liquors from around the world through this exhibition. We did our best to promote Korea’s unique fermentation culture and the value of Korean liquor to the world.”

Going forward, the National Tax Service of Korea will continue to enhance the substance of the K-SUUL AWARDS, continuously discover outstanding liquors from promising small and medium-sized enterprises, and will actively support the globalization of Korean liquor (K-SUUL) by promoting it both domestically and internationally and helping these businesses expand their sales channels.

Located on the main level of Great Mall in Milpitas, in the heart of the San Francisco Bay Area, the new concept store not only marks a significant step in bringing the latest K-beauty trends to a broader US audience, but also represents a major strategic milestone in advancing the Group’s B2C-B2B dual-engine strategy to expand market share in North America.

Driving O2O Synergy: Expanding Offline Reach to Complement B2C Strategy
Celebrating 20 years of delivering trending Asian products worldwide, YesStyle has transformed 1,500 square feet into an immersive retail fantasy.

The store offers a “Yesful playground” where beauty lovers can connect with over 60 Asian brands, featuring interactive makeup stations with beloved K-beauty labels like UNLEASHIA, dasique, fwee, and rom&nd, alongside a customizable mask bar. This experiential retail environment functions as a powerful, culturally rich marketing engine, generating offline brand awareness and foot traffic that seamlessly feeds into the digital platform, creating a complementary offline-to-online (O2O) loop that supports repeat purchases and maximizes customer lifetime value (LTV).

Mr. Joshua Lau, Founder, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of YesAsia Holdings said: “The launch of YesStyle‘s retail store marks a significant milestone for our brand, as we bring our top-tier and bestselling K-beauty products, along with advanced skin care innovation, into an offline setting for customers in the Bay Area. The Bay Area holds a special place in our history as the city where the Group was founded and where our first office was established. Opening our first YesStyle beauty retail store here feels like coming home and reinforces our commitment to continue innovating and delivering exceptional experiences to our customers, both online and offline.”

Empowering the B2B Wholesale Business AsiaBeautyWholesale (ABW) Growth

By physically showcasing a curated yet expansive selection of bestselling Korean beauty brands, including SKIN1004, Medicube, Anua, Dr. Althea, Beauty of Joseon, COSRX, and more, in a premium US retail environment, YesStyle acts as an effective market-testing ground.
