The Music Business/Management and Professional Music departments, through a generous grant by the CJ Cultural Foundation, will present the Business of K-pop and the Korean Wave Symposium.
This two-part event consists of a Berklee-exclusive afternoon A&R panel, the Business of K-pop: A&R Listening Session (login required), during which students who submitted music for review will be given feedback by industry experts, including KAIROS(Opens in a new window) and Adrian McKinnon(Opens in a new window), both of whom have contributed to some of the biggest K-pop songs of all time.
The evening event, which is open to the public, will begin with a performance by the KCSA (Korean Culture Student Association), followed by a panel discussion with Korean pop band ADOY, band manager Daniel Ha, and special guest Jake Hong, director of U.S. music business at CJ E&M media company. The evening’s festivities will conclude with an exclusive, first-time-on-U.S.-soil appearance by ADOY(Opens in a new window).
