Hwatu Night: Korean Card Game-Uptown

About this event

Ever wondered what game those *ajummas* were playing with those small red cards? Now is your chance to learn! **Hwatu is a Korean card game** that's easy to learn but takes a lifetime to master. **Come learn to play for free!** TokkiTalk x Moona Moono Present: HWATU NIGHT Thursday, September 17 5-8pm at Moona Moono in Uptown Mpls WHAT IS HWATU? Hwatu is a traditional Korean card game played with a unique set of cards. In many ways, the gameplay is similar to rummy. However, if rummy is a quiet strategy session, hwatu is more of a party. Expect noise, quick rounds, and a lot of friendly teasing. Having fun is as important as winning! WHAT WILL HWATU NIGHT FEEL LIKE? Like all Moona Moono events, **groups** and **solos** are **all welcome** to join! We will walk folks through the mechanics of the game and then we will just start playing! NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE IS NEEDED. We just want to share the fun and lay the foundation for a monthly Uptown hwatu club! ABOUT TOKKITALK At TokkiTalk, we create spaces designed to connect Minnesotans with Korean language and culture. *Tokki* means “rabbit” in Korean, which many consider the Korean peninsula to be shaped like! The goal of our classes and events is to spark more “tokkitalk”: practice of the Korean language and conversation about Korean culture. Whether you are looking to connect with your roots, understand your favorite shows and music better, or learn about a new culture, TokkiTalk is here for you!
