VietNamNet Bridge – The famous Korean boy band Super Junior will perform free of charge at the South Korea – Vietnam Festival in Hanoi on March 15. This will be the third time the band coming to Vietnam.
The Korean Ambassador to Vietnam said that the festival is a significant event to celebrate 20-year relationship between the two countries. The event has been prepared for a year. The biggest TV broadcaster in South Korea, KBS, is the program organizer.

Vietnam is among four countries where KBS holds music galas. In the US, France and Japan, tickets for these shows are sold at high prices. In Vietnam, nearly 4,000 tickets will be delivered free of charge.

KBS’s commercial shows often have the participation of one or two bands but the show in Vietnam will have eight bands and top singers of Korea. Besides Super Junior, there will have Beast, CNBlue, MBLAQ, IU, Sistar, Secret and Davichi. Performers will not be paid highly but provided with airfares and accommodations only.

Among them, Super Junior came to Vietnam twice in 2010 and 2011. The remaining singers have never been to the country.

The 13-member Super Junior band will perform the band’s greatest hits like Mr. Simple, Sorry, Sorry, Superman and Following My Memories. The six-member Beast band will sing Beautiful, Fiction and Shock. The four-member CNBlue band will perform I’m a loner, Intuition, Love, Love Girl while the five-member MBLAQ will sing Oh yeah, Mona Lisa, This Is War and Run.

The two girls of Davichi will sing Don’t Say Goobye, 8282 and Hate You But I Love You. The four-member Secret band will perform How Dare You, Ma Boy, So Cool and Push Push. The IU chooses Good day, You and I, Marshmallow for the show in Vietnam.

The show will be joined by Vietnamese singers Ho Quynh Huong, Minh Quan and the Big Toe dancing troupe.

It will be broadcast on VTV of Vietnam and KBS.
