韩国歌手齐聚狮城 下月开唱
为配合下个月“Korean Festival 2008”，韩国歌手将聚集狮城，4日于室内体育馆开唱！
为了在狮城推广韩国文化，韩国驻新加坡领事馆今年将于下个月1至18日，首次在本地举办“Korean Festival 2008”，届时，韩国组合神话团员Junjin和Andy、7人美少男组合2PM、韩国当红女子组合Wonder Girls、Jewelry以及VOS等将首次大阵长来新，为11月4日的“Korean Pop Night”于室内体育馆的演唱会上开唱！
据悉，演唱会的6000张门票只送不卖，发言人表示，大部分的入门票将分发给此次活动主要赞助商LG、Samsung、远东机构、大韩航空以及韩亚航空，但也透露：“演唱会当天，我们也许会在现场分发200至300张门票，一切还未确定。”
其中，将参与当晚演唱会的组合2PM上个月刚在韩国发片。由韩国天王Rain恩师朴振英打造的2PM由7位平均年龄20岁的美少男朴在凡、Nickhun、李俊浩、金峻秀、长宇勇、玉泽演及岁的美少男黄璨诚组成。
Well for the record, the Singapore Tourism Board has organized a Korea Festival 2008 from 1st to 18th November, with a variety of traditional and contemporary events, from fine arts to popular culture and mainstream music. But the highlight has got to be the K-Pop Concert which will be held on Tuesday evening, 4th November 2008 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
Details are sketchy at the moment but the following is an email reply from the Embassy of the Republic of Korea who are the organizers for this event.
Thanks for expressing your interest in the K-Pop Concert, to be held on 4th November 2008 at the Singapore Indoor Stadium.
We are very excited to introduce a promising line-up of singers and performers from Korea, including established stars such as the Wonder Girls, Chae Yeon, Andy, JunJin, V.O.S., and Jewelry. Emerging artistes such as U-Kiss, 2PM, Peter and Kim Jong Wook will also feature in the performance on the 4th.
Ticketing arrangements for the K-Pop Concert are still being finalised.
Tickets will not be sold through the usual outlets such as SISTIC. Instead, they will be given away over the next few weeks through our key sponsors, Far East Organisation, LG Electronics and Korean Air. You may wish to check with the above-mentioned sponsors on their plans to release tickets to the public.
Korea International Radio will also be holding live quizzes around mid-October to give away free tickets to listeners.
We encourage you to stay tuned for further developments and news in the media over the next few weeks.
Thank you.
It seems like it would be a lottery to get the tickets. We don’t often get to see K-Pop artistes performing in Singapore so this is a pretty awesome opportunity regardless. The list looks pretty awesome on paper. You have argubably the most popular girl group Wonder Girls, sexy Chae Yeon, two Shinhwa members going solo Andy and JunJin, Jewerly, V.O.S. and the emerging artistes.
It’s nice to see all of them taking the time to come overseas to Singapore for a performance from their busy schedule. Hope that those who win the tickets are K-pop fans or at least become a convert after watching them.
