AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

K-pop & Awards: ATEEZ swept the top prize at the 35th Seoul Music Awards, taking the Daesang (Grand Prize) on June 20, while BOYNEXTDOOR and Lee Chan-won each racked up four trophies and new categories like “SMA Best Artist” and “Golden Revival” added fresh buzz. Fan Culture: Hearts2Hearts fans escalated a truck protest over Carmen’s beach-themed styling for “Lemon Tang,” arguing she was dressed in long pants instead of shorts. Music Releases: BABYMONSTER dropped a concept film for its 2026-27 world tour, with Seoul dates already sold out and more cities planned. Film/Streaming: ABS-CBN and Prime Video’s “The Silent Noise” won Best Asian Content at the 2026 Global OTT Awards in Busan, with Shin Hae-sun also recognized for acting. City Life: Seoul reopened six Han River pools and water playgrounds for summer, with safety rules and seasonal events running through late August. Industry Watch: Megabox JoongAng’s corporate rehabilitation filing is rattling Korea’s cinema ecosystem, raising fears beyond one multiplex chain.
