SBS 'Super Concert': GOT7 Bambam, Ateez, NCT 127 in lineup announced for Daegu event
The annual SBS year-end event titled, ‘Super Concert’ has become one of the highlights of the K-pop calendar since its inception in the year 2011. After many offline events over the years, a lot has changed for the annual show. The ‘Super Concert’ for the year 2020 was held at Hong Kong’s AsiaWorld-Expo following the 2019 Taipei event. Last year, the concert was called SBS ‘Super Concert - 2020 Super On-Tact' and was held in September.
The concert was broadcast live for fans globally who were not able to attend the event due to the ongoing pandemic. The concert had the name ‘On-tact’ which means online contact — something the K-pop industry made full use of to contect idols with their fans during the pandemic. The term has to do with fans not being able to make physical 'contact' with their favorite artists and found a way to do so online. The K-pop acts that appeared at the 2020 event were groups like Seventeen, Mamamoo, ITZY, Monsta X, and many more.
This time around, SBS has dropped a few spoilers as they have announced their lineup for 2021’s ‘Super Concert.’ On October 15, SBS unleashed the promotional campaign for the annual event on all their social media platforms. They announced the release date, venue, and lineup of their upcoming concert.
