About 60 members of the Korean community in Los Angeles came out to Ben Kitay Studio Stage 15 on Friday to support a fundraiser for David Ryu, the 38-year-old candidate for District 4 in the L.A. City Council.

Ryu looks to replace Councilman Tom LaBonge come election day, which will take place March 3 next year.
