The concert was held to mark the 30th anniversary of SM's foundation, and it compiled the musical heritage that SM, which created the current global K-pop cornerstone, has built up over 30 years. In particular, SM artists as well as 25 trainees and SM label artists appeared, raising expectations.
Above all, even if you look at 'SM Director', you cannot miss the 30th anniversary concert of SM Town. BoA, who debuted in 2000, is called the 'Asian Star' for her numerous hits, including 'Id Peacebee', 'Atlantis Princess', 'Only One', 'Only One', 'Valenti', 'Better', 'Better', 'My Name', 'Hurricane Venus', 'Merry-Kree', 'Girls on Top', 'Milky Way' and 'Air Garden'.
In particular, under SM's meticulous system, it dominated the Japanese market, which was barren at the time through rigorous training, and became a great nourishment for the current K-pop market.
On this day, BoA sang the title song of her fifth studio album 'Girls on Top' and drew cheers from fans. BoA, who boasted her unparalleled skills as a role model for many juniors, was the first person to speak at the SM Town 30th anniversary concert.
BoA greeted me after the performance "Is there anyone who came yesterday. We prepared a different stage from yesterday, but did you like it?" he said, adding that he performed 'Hurricane Venus' at the previous day's performance, but decorated 'Girls on Top' on the same day.
It is followed by the SM Town 30th anniversary performance, ranging from collaboration performances by senior and junior artists to trainee performances that will continue for the next 30 years. So I think it's going to be a concert that you can enjoy without getting bored" he forewarned.
The next stage was the title song of the 7th studio album 'Only One'. In particular, Only One is famous for its pair choreography with male singers such as TVXQ's U-Know Yunho, SHINee Taemin, EXO Sehun, WayV Ten, Rise Shotaro, and NCT Wish Xion. BoA, who worked with NCT Wish Zion for the first time in the previous day's performance, drew attention by creating a 'Only One' stage with Rise Shotaro. With the meeting of the second-generation BoA and the fifth-generation Rise, it drew attention with a special chemistry between 'senior and junior'.
