2008 Miss Korea Southern California: An Extreme Lack of Regulations by Korea Times
The Miss Korea Southern California held its 37th annual pageant at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre on June 27th last week. The Pageant’s organizers, Korea Times and its sponsors, Radio Seoul, KTAN-TV, Korean Air, and Macy’s, crowned the top five winners providing the top three winning beauties their tickets to be part of the 2008 Miss Korea Pageant, scheduled to take place on August 6th in Seoul, Korea. Although being part of such a prestigious pageant may be a dream for some, others find all and any means to place in the top three, competing for a chance to be crowned Miss Korea. Just as the Miss USA Pageant gathers its titleholders from all fifty states, the Miss Korea Pageant too gathers winners from the country’s provinces and places abroad with large Korean communities, such as, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York, to name a few.
