Seventeen, SF9, Punch and Beatpella Live in Dubai

Those looking for their next good dose of K-pop should attend the Korean Brand and Content Expo at the Dubai World Trade Centre on Thursday, October 17. The event is set to be a mighty showcase of all things Korean and guests can expect an epic evening worth of performances with nearly half a dozen acts tapped to perform.

Hosted by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy of Republic of Korea and organised by KOTRA, the cultural expo is taking place at Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) from October 17-18. The two-hour long K-Pop concert is scheduled to start at 6pm and end at 8pm.

The following day, fans can get up and close and meet the prominent actress and both K-Pop boy groups at an autograph signing event at DWTC’s Shaikh Saeed Hall1.

Seventeen, a group made up of 13 members, will be split in subgroups called the hip-hop, vocal and performance 'units.' They are expected to sing hits from their new album “An Ode” that was released earlier this month. “An Ode” is the band’s third full-length album.

Next in line are SF9, who are also known as Sensational Feeling 9. This time around, the numbers of members are in tune with their name, and fans will get the opportunity to hear their recently released second album Illuminate.

Seventeen, SF9 and Ha Ji Won were formally appointed as the official honorary ambassadors for ‘Korea Brand & Content Expo 2019 Dubai’, which is considered one of the world’s largest Korean wave or Hallyu expositions, in Seoul on September 23.

South Korean singer Punch will also perform songs from Korean dramas, such as “That’s Love," “It’s Okay” and “Descendants of the Sun.” Rounding off the bill is duo Beatpella, which is ‘Beatbox’ and ‘A cappella’ combined and features Korean beatboxer Hiss and singer Yella.E. They will no doubt impress attendees with their own remixes and renditions of K-Pop songs.
