In celebration of KOREA 360‘s second anniversary, the Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism of the Republic of Korea, together with Korea Creative Content Agency (KOCCA), marked this historic milestone with thousands of Korean culture enthusiasts in Indonesia. KOREA 360 2nd Anniversary: <2GETHER> took place at the Main Atrium of KOREA 360, located in LOTTE Mall, Jakarta, over two days—December 6 and 7, 2024. The event celebrated KOREA 360’s role in promoting K-brands and Korean culture in Jakarta, with special appearances by the rising boy group LUN8, renowned soloist Paul Kim, and the enchanting girl group OH MY GIRL.
LUN8, the talented boy group under Fantagio Entertainment, debuted on June 15, 2023, with their mini album CONTINUE?, quickly earning a growing fanbase. Paul Kim, a beloved South Korean solo singer, is known for his heartfelt songs adored by fans worldwide. Meanwhile, OH MY GIRL, a girl group under WM Entertainment, has been winning hearts with their chart-topping songs since their debut in 2015.
Before lighting up the stage, the artists took a moment to meet with the media in exclusive press conference sessions. They shared their joy and gratitude for the chance to engage with Indonesian fans through KOREA 360, while hinting at plans for future promotions in the country. Later, they participated in a special handprinting ceremony at COLLECT Town KOREA 360, officially joining the cherished collection of 162 handprints from South Korea’s celebrated icons.
The first day of KOREA 360 2nd Anniversary: <2TOGETHER> was filled with vibrant energy, thanks to stunning performances by LUN8 and Paul Kim. Known for their dynamic stage presence, LUN8 thrilled the crowd with three of their fan-favorite tracks, SUPER POWER, Love Trailer, and WHIP during the fanmeeting session.
Following the fanmeeting with LUN8, Paul Kim mesmerised the audience with his mini concert. The singer performed three of his greatest hits, Me After You, Every Day, Every Moment, and So Long—a beloved OST from the popular drama Hotel Del Luna. The Main Atrium KOREA 360 was filled with emotion as Paul Kim’s soulful voice resonated with the audience. Afterward, Paul Kim took the time to interact closely with fans through high-touch and group photo sessions.
On the second day of the festivities, LUN8 once again delighted the audience during their DAY 2 Fanmeeting, winning them over with their fresh and unique charms. The excitement soared even higher when OH MY GIRL took over, performing their most popular tracks, Dun Dun Dance, Dolphin, and Nonstop. Their bubbly energy and cute stage presence brought even more joy to the atmosphere. To conclude the celebration, some lucky fans had the chance to get up close and personal with OH MY GIRL through a fansigning session.
