The blueprint calls for large-scale performances featuring global artists and a variety of K-culture experience programs to bring fans worldwide together.
In particular, Park Jin-Young stressed, "For K-culture to be sustainable, it must grow beyond culture into an industry," and said K-pop must play a central role. The episode will also reveal dramatic behind-the-scenes stories of how Korea's four major entertainment companies (JYP·SM·YG·HYBE) came together.
In addition, Chief of Staff Kang Hoon-sik shared an anecdote about receiving an unusual request from foreign leaders during overseas summits to "procure K-idol light sticks". A special behind-the-scenes story that Park Jin-Young personally tracked down and delivered the light sticks is revealed, highlighting K-pop's growing influence on the world stage.
