The festival’s three main events ― K-pop Concert, Park Concert, and BOF Land ― will introduce K-pop acts, artists from different music genres, and the culture of Busan, respectively, to viewers.

NCT Dream, a teenage sub-unit of SM Entertainment’s popular boy band NCT, and two other rising boy groups ― The Boyz and WEi ― will headline the K-pop concert.

Founded in 2016, BOF has been held annually in Busan and has developed into one of the largest K-pop festivals in the country. Last year’s edition, however, was canceled for the first time due to COVID-19. (Yonhap)
