Major K-pop updates 2022

Label SJ, which houses Super Junior, says they will postpone Super Show 9: Road in Manila set later today.
“However, the members wanted to meet and greet the fans who came to Manila to attend the concert, so we’d like to ask everyone with tickets to enter the concert venue on time,” it added.
This was after the member Eunhyuk was unable to fly to Manila after his father passed away, while Siwon earlier tested positive for COVID-19.
A detailed explanation on ticket and schedule will be released soon, label SJ added. — Kristine Joy Patag

South Korean rapper Psy is living his best life –- proud of his "greatest trophy" and free from the pressure of repeating the unprecedented success of "Gangnam Style".
Uploaded to YouTube on July 15, 2012, the song's wacky music video became a runaway megahit, with its trademark horse-riding dance spawning thousands of imitations, spoofs and spinoffs.
It was the first YouTube video to reach one billion views, and with it Psy attained what K-pop acts before him could not: global recognition.
"I had a huge dependency (on) the song... But you know, it's 10 years ago, so right now I'm really free," Psy tells AFP.
