Staff ReporterTop K-pop and hip-hop stars will gather for the “Summer Big 4 Concerts,” on July 21 and 22. Promising to be one of the biggest musical events this summer, “Summer Big 4 Concerts” will be held at the Olympic Gymnasium, Olympic Park.
On July 21, the Exciting Star concert will feature performances by four of the most exciting hip-hop performers namely, Drunken Tiger, T Yoon Mi-rae, Dynamic Duo and Epik High.
Drunken Tiger, also known as Tiger JK, is one of the leading members of the Korean hip-hop scene. T, who released her solo album earlier this year, is considered a brilliant female rapper and R&B artist.
Dynamic Duo has just released their new album “Enlightened.” Epik High is one of the popular groups in Korea, with recent hits like “Fan” and “Love Love Love.”
The Fantastic Star concert features SG Wannabe, Seeya, Yangpa and new group FT Island on July 22. These four artists are known for their powerful ballads and forceful voices.
SG Wannabe is one of the most popular vocal groups today, winning over fans with their romantic songs. Seeya may be considered as the female version of SG Wannabe, but this all-girl trio also impressed many with their vocal talents.
Yangpa is back in the music scene, releasing an album “The Windows of My Soul” after a six-year absence. FT Island, whose name stands for Five Treasure Island, is one of the rising K-pop groups today. FT Island released their first album “Cheerful Sensibility” last month, and has been steadily attracting fans.
The two concerts are perhaps the most exciting event so far this summer. Special guests are also expected to appear during both.
Ticket prices for the Exciting Star concert range from 49,500 won to 71,500 won. The tickets for Fantastic Star concert range from 55,000 won to 110,000 won for VIP seats. For more information, call 1544-0737 or www.goodconcert.com.
I love this group! I first noticed them in their MV on AZN or another US channel following immediately after Rain’s It’s Raining. I thought they were Japanese…..LOL but i later found out they are Korean
