AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

K-pop on the global stage: TXT’s Yeonjun hit ABC’s “Good Morning America,” performing “Vanilla” and “Talk to You,” as part of the show’s summer concert series. K-pop comeback buzz: NOWZ dropped “Achilles,” a 1980s disco-leaning Gen Z reinterpretation, with a Seoul press showcase teasing the group’s “zero sexy” concept. Music industry policy: KOMCA ended its ban on registering AI-assisted songs, allowing royalties if a human creator makes a “substantial and leading” contribution and discloses which AI tools were used. Culture push: South Korea’s culture ministry outlined plans to boost cultural industries and attract 40 million foreign visitors, including more support for content IP and overseas expansion. Sports-meets-entertainment: Manchester City opened Enzo Maresca’s era with a 3-1 win over the K-League All Stars in Seoul, with the match streaming via CITY+ (blackout in South Korea). Arts abroad: The Korean Cultural Caravan brought hanbok, folk games, and VR tours to Alexandria, Egypt, via the Korean Cultural Center.
