[NEWS] 111031 Billboard Korea's "K-POP MASTERS" Concert to take place in Las Vegas on November 25th/26th


On August 25th, Billboard announced their official "K-Pop Hot 100" Chart, which was launched in conjunction with Billboard Korea. The chart is mostly based on digital sales from leading music sites, as well as mobile downloads using an industry-standard formula and the most credible music data sources within Korea. SISTAR was the first group to top the chart with their latest hit, "So Cool," and Davichi followed with "Don't Say Goodbye."

To celebrate the premiere of the chart, Billboard Korea will be presenting the Billboard 2011 KPOP MASTERS event live in Las Vegas, Nevada in conjunction with the MGM Grand. The event will be held at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada on Friday, November 25, 2011 at 8PM PST and Saturday, November 26th at 8PM PST.

Howard Appelbaum, the president of Prometheus Global Media, stated, "At Billboard, we recognize the huge potential for K-Pop in the United States and are excited to be able to gather all of the premier Korean music agencies together at MGM Grand for this historical event." He continued with, "We’re hoping this will foster more collaborations and make additional moves towards building a global music scene as opposed to country specific offerings."

For over a year, the MGM Grand in Las Vegas has been working with event organizing company KPMA, LLC. Some of the major companies in Korea, such as SM Entertainment and Cube Entertainment will be coming together for the event hosted by Billboard Korea.

The two day concert also includes a red carpet event, arranged by K-Pop Masters which will occur on Friday for all attendees. Fans will be able to get up close and personal with the favorite groups as they get ready for the show. This event is free to the general public and will be held at MGM’s Grand Garden Arena. Photography will be allowed for all fans and will be at a first come first served basis.
