SEOUL, May 13 (Yonhap) -- K-pop boy group SEVENTEEN will mark their 10th debut anniversary with a large-scale offline celebration later this month, their agency Pledis Entertainment said Tuesday.
The three-day event, titled "B-DAY PARTY," will take place from June 23 to 25 around Banpo Hangang Park, including Sebitseom and Jamsugyo Bridge in Seoul. It coincides with the release of SEVENTEEN’s fifth full-length album"HAPPY BURSTDAY," which drops on June 26, the group’s official debut anniversary.
The main venue, Sebitseom's Chavit island, will feature a SEVENTEEN History Zone that traces the group’s journey over the past decade, as well as an Interactive Art Zone where fans can leave handwritten messages of celebration.
Other islands on Sebitseom will offer additional fan experiences. At Gavit, a pop-up store will sell limited-edition merchandise commemorating the new album, while Yevit will screen SEVENTEEN’s past hit music videos on a large LED display.
On June 25, the group will hold a special live concert titled BURST Stage on Jamsugyo Bridge — becoming the first K-pop act to perform on the bridge. The performance will be livestreamed online and also broadcast in real-time on special LED screens installed in Banpo Hangang Park.
The festivities are being held in collaboration with the Jamsugyo Pedestrian Festival, a recurring Sunday event hosted by the Seoul Metropolitan Government that promotes car-free enjoyment of the iconic bridge. Seocho District, which designated the area as a tourism zone earlier this year, is also taking part in organizing the event.
In addition, hotels such as Seoul Dragon City and L7 Cheongnyangni by LOTTE will offer SEVENTEEN-themed rooms, allowing fans to further immerse themselves in the anniversary experience.
