If you’ve been manifesting a K-Pop concert experience that won’t leave you broke, we’ve got news that’ll make your heart sing. The 2025 Busan One Asia Festival (BOF) is returning bigger and better than ever.
The 2025 BOF is happening from 11 and 13 June at Busan’s swanky BEXCO venue (yes, indoors with aircon, no more melting under the Korean summer sun). This year’s edition promises two days of K-Pop mayhem with SM Culture & Contents pulling the strings—expect slicker production values and zero weather-related cancellations.
Who’s Performing?
Confirmed so far:
- NCT WISH (Day 1)
- ATEEZ (Day 1)
- Hearts2Hearts (that new girl group everyone’s talking about)
- WayV (Day 2)
- Super Junior (Day 2)
- TREASURE (Day 2)
- More acts TBA (but insider sources say prepare to be shook)
Why Busan is the Perfect Festival Destination
While you’re there for the music, Busan offers so much more. As Korea’s second-largest city and a coastal gem, you’ll have the chance to:
- Enjoy stunning views from the iconic Oryukdo Skywalk and more
- Explore vibrant local markets and street food scenes
- Relax on beautiful beaches just minutes from the venue
- Experience both traditional and modern Korean culture
Choose Your Festival Experience
When booking through Changi Recommends, you can select between two Festival Day Experience options:
Full Day Tour (SGD$128+): The comprehensive option that includes concert ticket, transportation, guided sightseeing around Busan’s iconic spots, and transport to the concert venue. Perfect for first-time visitors who want a hassle-free experience with everything arranged. You’ll explore Busan’s highlights with your guide before being transported directly to BEXCO for the concert.
Half Day Tour (SGD$103+): A more flexible option that includes your concert ticket and 30% Off for Spaland at Shinsaegae Department Store. Ideal for those who prefer to make their own way to the concert venue.
Is it worth flying to Busan for this? If you’re a serious K-Pop fan who’s tired of Singapore’s concert prices, absolutely. The festival experience, local culture and chance to explore Busan make it a solid investment in your K-Pop journey. Plus, can you really put a price on potentially breathing the same air as your bias? We think not.
P.S. Don’t forget to practice your fan chants. Nothing more paiseh (embarrassing) than being the only one not knowing the words 😂
