◆ From rising K-pop artists to legendary artists... The current state of K-Popular music
The Weverse Corn Festival is a music festival where you can experience the characteristics and trends of contemporary popular music in one place. From K-pop artists who are taking over the global music charts and continuing their global tour, to foreign artists who came to Korea only for the WeverseCon festival, as well as legendary artists who have been active for decades, a diverse lineup that is hard to find in one place. It is raising expectations.
Celebrating the 30th anniversary of her debut, Uhm Jung-hwa will not only present a stage filled with legendary songs, but will also showcase a collaboration stage with junior artists. Since Uhm Jung-hwa was revealed as the main character of the Tribute Stage on May 22, expectations for the appearance of Uhm Jung-hwa, an ongoing artist, are rising on Weverse and various social media. Lee Hyun will perform on the stage of 'Weverse Park' on the 10th as a sweet ballader, and on the stage of 'Weverse Con' on the 11th as another self, 'MIDNATT'. Global fans are also paying attention to the stage of Jeremy Zucker, who is actively communicating with fans around the world through Weverse.
In addition, various artists are ready to meet the audience on the stage of 'Weverse Park' and 'Weverse Con'. On the Weavers Park stage, which is held in a green grassy yard, stages where you can feel the artist's musical depth will be unfolded with an all live band to delight the five senses of the audience. At WeverseCon, held at KSPO DOME, immersive performances will be presented for 240 minutes on multiple multi-stages that can be easily switched to create customized stages for each artist.
◆ A variety of entertainment along with performances
As can be seen from the identity of the 'Music & Fan Life Festival', the Weverse Corn Festival will provide not only performances by artists, but also programs and various event spaces where visitors can directly communicate with the stage and participate, providing a variety of entertainment from morning to evening. am.
In 'Weverse Park', which is spread out on the 88 Lawn Courtyard, various food and beverage booths are prepared, from audience experience programs, so you can fully enjoy the festival mood while enjoying nature. There are programs for visitors to create a festival together, such as 'Boom Up Stage', a mini talk time with MC Jae-jae that boosts the festive atmosphere to the fullest, and 'URBAN DANCE STUDIO', where you can learn choreography directly from the artist's performance director. It goes on.
There are trendy food and beverage booths where you can taste festival-limited menus, photo booths where you can leave memories of the festival, and at Haneol Square in front of KSPO DOME, there are product booths where you can purchase festival merch and various event and experience zones. About 30 booths will be prepared to double the diversity of the festival.

This festival will provide a different kind of enjoyment and convenience by applying various elements so that the experience of the global fandom live platform 'Weverse' can be enjoyed offline.
Weverse's new services, 'Weverse by Fans' and 'Weverse Queue', will be unveiled for the first time at the festival site. Weverse by Fans is a service that allows users to easily create their own official merch by using design elements such as photos, logos, and image clips of their favorite artists on desired products. Fans who came to the site of this festival can use the process from ordering to receiving products at a dedicated booth prepared on site before the official launch.
