widespread popularity and recognition.

“For one night only, K-pop fans can enjoy hit songs and cool moves from 13
acts, so there will be something for everyone.” Added Seo Hyun: “We hope the
fans will support every single band, regardless of who their favourites are, as
Music Wave is all about the K-pop family coming together.”

Entertainment’s Founding Partner, Lau Kin Wai said, “We know that K-pop fans in
Singapore and around Southeast Asia are some of the most passionate and loyal
in the world, so Music Wave is a special treat for them. This is the big one
they’ve been waiting for. To see 13 of their favourite acts perform on one
stage at a great venue such as the Gardens by the Bay will be a night to
remember.”
