K-pop burst onto the Korean music scene in the 90s with Seo Taiji and the Boys, and has since grown throughout the past decades into the international cultural powerhouse it is today. But what is the history of the early Korean music that influenced and gave rise to K-pop?
Join us at during BC Culture Days for our Roots of K-pop event, featuring a temporary months long exhibit at Mackin House and culminating in a live DJ performance on Saturday, September 28, where DJs from KTV Media Production will broadcast live from Mackin House and spin records showcasing the roots of K-pop.
Free. RSVP appreciated.
