After an incredible month that has seen the likes of WayV, Kid Milli and Red Velvet head to the UK, June was a successful month for K-pop events in the UK. The month has seen some major K-pop events announced for the future also.
Now entering July, we have already had some big events, whether it’s BlackPink rocking out at Hyde Park or Bang Yongguk performing to start the month. July looks to be another incredible month.
Arguably Korea’s most successful and recognisable punk rock bands Rumkicks make their long-awaited UK return this month as they embark on their European tour. Which will see them head to London, Brighton, Birmingham and Liverpool before attending the UK’s biggest punk festival, Rebellion Festival in Blackpool in August. The tour will also see Seoul death punk disco band 18Fevers perform alongside them each step of the way.
Running for the second year, 1-on-1 and Radio Kimchi will officially bring back the kpop pop-up market. The event is once again set to hold a wide range of stalls from K-pop essentials like albums and clothing and will also feature Korean cultural staples such as K-beauty products and Korean food/snacks as well.
