The line-up for the concert has been confirmed:
KANGTA, BoA, TVXQ!, Super Junior, Girls’ Generation, Shinee, f(x), EXO-K, EXO-M
So almost all the heavy weights will be here. There was some speculations earlier as to whether SHINee will be attending since their concert in Singapore is on the 8th December. I’m sure SHINee fans are really happy at seeing the boys twice. I supposed this could be an appetizer to their concert?
The concert is expected to last for 4 hours and Singapore and Indonesia are the only 2 Southeast Asian countries to host this mammoth concert. This will be the first public concert held on the Floating Platform (National Day Parade not counted). There are not many concerts that is that ambitious and at 18,000 or more capacity, if the venue fills up, it will indeed be a spectacular event. Production costs is expected to amount to about $5 million.
This will be the first time that EXO-K and EXO-M are in Singapore and I know that these boys have quite a number of fans, despite the fact that they have only released one single. As for BoA, I think she has been here previously but a long time ago when there was as yet any Korean wave, let alone a tsunami. Unfortunately, one of favourite member from Super Junior will not be here- Lee Teuk will report to the army on 30th October. 🙁
Still, with so many artistes, it should be worth the money spent, though SM Town will also have to contend with competition, particularly from YG as 2NE1 is scheduled to perform in Singapore for their first ever concert on the 1st December.
I’m guessing there will be major screens as those sitting at the back will literally be seeing ants.
Ok. get those fingers flexing.
