The performance industry, which has been in a deep quagmire due to the prolonged COVID-19, stretches.
Popular music Concert was the most damaged by the spread of COVID-19. Unlike other genre performances such as classical musicals, it was classified as an Event for gatherings and more than 100 people were banned, so it was impossible to actually hold performances.
However, according to the government's newly announced reform plan on the 20th, large-scale Concerts including popular music performances will allow up to 5,000 people in the second and fourth stages from July. Instead, it operates a designated seat system without standing seats and applies Venues rules such as prohibition of shouting. If the current level of prEvention is maintained, the second stage of the metropolitan area will be applied, so large-scale performances will be held.
As a result, COVID-19 has been indefinitely postponed or canceled large-scale performances are also announcing the resumption.
'Vulcano' Na Hoon-a, who called 'Tess-type syndrome' last year, will hold 'Again Tess-type'. Na Hoon-a was scheduled to go on tour immediately after Chuseok special feature last year, and the actual young people were enthusiastic about ticket reservations and sold out all seats within 10 minutes. However, the performance was cancelled with COVID-19. The COVID-19-related social distance reorganization plan will be held, and the Deagu EXCO Dongguan from July 16 to 18, Busan BEXCO from July 23 to 25, and the Seoul Olympic KSPO Dome from August 27 to 29 will hold a total of 18 performances.

Crossover group RapoM will open its first solo Concert at Suwon FC Cheongju Broadcasting Seongnam Seoul starting from KBS Ulsan Hall on the 26th ~ 27th.

'A Beautiful Mind Mint Life 2021' is an outdoor music festival held for the first time after COVID-19.

Audiences should complete self-diagnosis using body temperature measurement and rapid antigen kit as well as QR check-in before entering. However, as it is the first outdoor music festival since the COVID-19 incident, music fans are interested.
In the case of idol groups, it has a huge fandom, so it is still burdensome to take offline Events. As we are moving on a global basis, we are in a position to watch the situation until it is more stable, so we are generally aiming for an Online performance.
