SMTown artists including Kangta, Boa, Yunho, Changmin, Super Junior, Girl's Generation, SHINee, F(x) and Trax etc. will be taking part in a SMTown live concert in Seoul Olympic Stadium on the 21st.
The official name of the event is 'SMTown Live '10 World Tour in Seoul', and it is estimated that there will be a total of 80 songs performed over the course of 6 hours.
This is not the first time SM artists have gathered for a concert, this has been the case for many years and it is a way of displaying the strong bonds and friendships amongst SMTown. Of course, it also offers the audience a high degree of satisfaction.
The focal interest of this event is that it will comprise more artists than ever before, and since it takes the form a world tour, they will also be performing in China, Japan and the US etc. Representatives of SM said that 'This will be very different from the concert we had two years ago, this is a much larger scale world tour. The world tour will kick off in Seoul, and in order to reach out to overseas fans, we've been planning performances abroad for a long time. We will be holding a concert in LA on September 4th and travel to Shanghai and Tokyo etc. later on.
In preparation for the SMTown concerts, special stages featuring Yunho and Changmin were prepared. There will also be collaborations by Boa & Key, Kyuhyun & Seohyun, as well as Jessica & Krystal.
In particular, fans are highly anticipating special performances by Yunho and Changmin. Yunho delivered a mature and sophisticated live performance on March 27th this year at the Michael Jackson memorial concert, exhibiting his phenomenal skill and talent. Thinking back to that event makes fans wonder what he will have in stall for us this time. With regard to this, SM Entertainment confidently expressed that 'Details about Yunho and Changmin's stage will be kept confidential, but we assure you that you will not be disappointed.'
Moreover, SM pointed out that 'SHINee's Key has been a fan of BoA since before his debut so he is really looking forward to performing with her.' 'The collaboration between group maknaes Kyuhyun and Seohyun have also gained much interest and we are sure their beautiful voices will provide a refreshing feeling for the audience'
SM representatives claim that 'We hope to make this concert an enjoyable event where all members of the SM family are able to come together. Each artist has prepared his/her own numbers, some are songs from the past whilst others are collaborative dance stages.
