Over the years, plenty of talented Korean artists and groups have performed at Coachella.

EPIK HIGH, a hip-hop trio, was the first Korean act to perform at the festival in 2016.

XG, a global girl group that promotes largely in South Korea, also performed this year.

My main gripe is with the order of the setlist.

ROSE was an immediate standout for me.

Her bright energy made for great interactions with the crowd and incredibly stable vocals throughout.

SHINee & TXT

Overall, I enjoyed this performance and was excited to watch their headlining set.

Covers allow an artist to make a well-known song their own, attracting new fans in the process.

These 10 K-Pop covers do just that and more.

I can’t help but feel like BLACKPINK more than earned their place on the Main Stage in 2023.

When I realized what she was doing after that first set, everything clicked.

There’s a reason why ATEEZ is known as a performance powerhouse.

“I think the first time we came to LA was about six years ago.

We were practicing like crazy in a tiny little studio to get a chance to debut.
