Highlight

Highlight, recognized for songs like ‘Fiction’ and ‘Mystery,’ says they absolutely can not wait for their first show in the UAE.

“We have been to many overseas concerts since our first debut, but it was our first time visiting here in Dubai and UAE,” a statement from the group read. “First of all, we are extremely happy to meet fans in the UAE for the first time. Moreover, it is an honour to show K-Pop performances on a big stage like the Dubai Expo 2020.”

“In the second half of this year, I think [we] will probably focus on our personal activities. Doojun is filming a drama, Gikwang is working on entertainment and music, and Yoseop is taking a break after finishing his solo album activities in September this year, and Dongwoon is also spending time filming entertainment and working on music,” the statement added.

Punch

Punch, a solo artist best known for singing tracks for K-Dramas, said she’s excited to fulfill a promise she made to fans to return to Dubai and perform.

“I have been working hard on my songs to show you a better performance when it’s time to meet the fans face to face,” she said in a statement. “I was disappointed that I had fewer opportunities to meet my fans after COVID-19. It’s my second visit since my first visit to Dubai two years ago, and I had a lot of good memories. I’m looking forward to this concert even more!”

The Korean Cultural Center in the UAE and The Korea Creative Content Agency are organizing the event to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the UAE National Day.

A virtual performance by the famous boy band BTOB, girl group LABOUM, and boy group LUMINOUS will also be included.
