The Korean pop industry has produced some of the most successful music acts ever. Behind the catchy tunes and slick choreography, there’s a fine-tuned formula for creating hits and harnessing the power of fans. Kim meets some of K-pop’s biggest artists and examines the superfan phenomenon driving this industry. Kim sits down with **Psy**, one of the most famous entertainers in Korean history, to discuss his impact on the K-Pop scene and his evolving strategy for success. In the recording studio, he meets **Taeyang**, member of legendary Korean boy band BigBang and chart-topping solo artist who is working on his latest solo album. They talk about BigBang’s 20-year reunion and what it takes to have lasting success in the K-pop industry. Over lunch at a café run by her father, Kim also chats with pop superstar **JEON SOMI** where she reflects on her idol career and journey to gaining greater creative freedom. Kim also joins singer-songwriter **eSNa** for a walk in Namsan Park to go over her experiences working in the industry. Carrying on this musical legacy, new acts are constantly breaking through – including **AllDay Project**, a uniquely co-ed band which debuted in June last year. Kim catches up with them on the day of the release of their first EP and follows their progress across multiple K-pop-focused awards events across Asia. He also gets to know **MEOVV**, a five-part girl group and part of The Black Label, an agency known for cultivating creative freedom with its roster of talent. For a different perspective, Kim connects with some of the producers behind the soundtrack of global phenomenon "**KPop Demon Hunters**" – where he voiced the role of Healer Han – who share their thoughts on the movie’s success and show how they put together "Golden". He also speaks with **David Kim**, a YouTuber turned Adjunct Professor to learn more about the modern history that paved the way for today’s music scene and finds out from K-pop fans about why they spend a small fortune on tickets, merchandise, travel and more.
