Bullfighting in Korea
Spain is famous for bullfighting although some parts of the country are trying to do away with the sport. South Korea has bullfights, too, but they’re a little different. There’s no matador and no swords. It’s just bull against bull and there’s a lot less blood. The fight rarely ends with one of the bulls dying. Jason Strother recently visited the annual bullfighting festival in the village of Cheongdo.
