Lineup and Performances at the Yeouido Mulbit Stage
The roughly two-hour program brings together four distinct musical acts to perform at the 2,400-seat Yeouido Mulbit Stage, recognized as the world’s first retractable floating stage. Singer Choi Seung-yeol, known as the runner-up in the Kim Kwang-seok special of JTBC’s Hidden Singer 2, takes the stage alongside Kim Chang-ki. Kim was a founding member of the group Dongmulwon alongside the late Kim Kwang-seok and composed well-known tracks such as “On the Street” and “I Will Love You.”
The bill also includes the jazz vocal and piano duo Park Jung-in & Lee Gyu-ri, delivering soft melodic jazz numbers.
