SEOUL – South Korean officials have promised to provide plenty of clean toilets at an all-star K-pop concert for young scouts on Friday, hoping that the show will salvage their experience after a disastrous jamboree.
“We are putting a lot of effort on sanitation aspects to ensure the scouts have a pleasant experience at the stadium,” Culture Ministry spokesman Kang Jeong-won said at a briefing. About 90,000 water bottles will be provided to keep the scouts hydrated, Mr Choi Hoon, a senior Interior Ministry official, said.The international jamboree, with more than 40,000 participants from around the world, has been marred by unheeded warnings and lack of preparations.
