SEOUL, Aug. 4 (Yonhap) -- Popular Norwegian DJ and music producer Alan Walker will hold a concert in Seoul on October 18, the event organizer Seoul Auction X announced Monday.

 

The show is set to take place at the soccer field in Seoul Children's Grand Park.

 

Walker rose to global prominence in 2015 with the hit single "Faded," which has since surpassed 3.6 billion views on YouTube, making it the first track in the electronic dance music (EDM) genre to exceed 3 billion views. The song has also been streamed over 1.8 billion times on Spotify.

 

With more than 47 million subscribers, Walker’s YouTube channel is the most-followed among Norwegian creators. His previous concerts in Korea, held in 2022 and 2024, sold out all seats.

 

Seoul Auction X, a subsidiary of Seoul Auction, is organizing the upcoming event under its vision of “bridging entertainment and art.”

 

“The concert aims to present a world-class DJ performance in Korea, while also exploring the expansion of the art business as a next-generation growth engine,” the company stated.
