Bras for a Cause is returning to Seoul to raise money and awareness for breast cancer on Oct. 20.
Unique bras will go on the block in an auction in aid of the Korean Breast Cancer Foundation, while there will also be music, bellydancing and a burlesque performance at the event at JR Pub in Itaewon.
Doors open 6 p.m. and entry is 10,000 won, covering a pink breast cancer awareness bracelet and a raffle ticket.
As a prelude to the event, the Boob Crawl, another fundraiser for the KBCF, takes place on Saturday.
Participants will visit five Itaewon bars, each stop featuring a different breast-related activity, including “pin the nipples on the boobies” and “whose boobies are these.”
The crawl starts at Bless U at 9 p.m. and stops at Dillinger’s, JR Pub and Metro, before finishing up at Sin Bin at 11:30.
Participation costs 5,000 won and includes a bracelet and a ticket for the raffle for those who stay to the end.
The Korean Breast Cancer Foundation is a non-profit organization that provides care for breast cancer patients from low-income households, including free breast cancer prevention classes and diagnosis, fee support for low-income patients and support meetings for cancer patients.
