The time of year has come again, with Busan's One Asia Festival, taking place in Korea's third largest city, Busan, between Saturday, June 8, and Sunday, June 9, 2024! Here is everything you need to know for this weekend's festivities!
When I heard that there was going to be this amazing event, I was so excited, because this year's event promises to promote a Cultural Playland where attendees can enjoy a variety of performances, content, and exhibitions with an emphasis on K-pop! Attendees will also be able to watch live K-pop groups on stage. How cool is that?!
If you are wondering more about which groups will be performing at the event, we have some of the hottest artists confirmed. Let's check out the lineup!
Saturday, June 8th:
god, Super Junior-D&E, ZEROBASEONE, BOYNEXTDOOR, Billlie, H1-KEY, LUN8, nSSign, NOWADAYS
Sunday, June 9th:
JUKJAE, MeloMance, ONESTAR, Paul Kim, Peakboy
I think that it's great that Busan is hosting this event instead of Seoul, as it brings more tourism to the area. Since Busan did not win the 2030 World Expo, it still shows the city as a world-stage player for major events, which tourists both domestically and internationally can enjoy.
I really wish that I was able to attend the event myself this year, as the event will showcase a variety of K-pop performances from different generations to enable it to be an event for multiple generations which I think is really exciting.
Also hosting the event in Korea for all things K-pop since the K-culture industry has literally exploded in the past couple of years is a really smart move. Lots of close by Asian countries will be able to travel easily to Busan to enjoy the event.
In some of my other articles I mentioned that many K-idol artists and groups are making a comeback ahead of the summer season, so I am curious if any of these artists will also attend the event.
