The typhoon Kong-rey is heading north toward Korea.
The tyhpoon is moving faster than expected.
Many weekend events have been postponed or canceled.
Many fall festivals are being canceled too.
The 2018 Changwon K-Pop World Star Festival
might be canceled due to the typhoon heading north.
(The 2018 Changwon K-Pop World Festival was cancelled)
(The typhoon caused disappointment and frustration)
(Entrants were in despair at the news of cancellation)
(A moment where all their effort was for nothing)
(Entrants with tears in their eyes)
(Their dreams disappear right before their eyes)
(The stage they've dreamed of disappears in a flash)
(And then!)
(The executive manager rushes in)
I am Lee Myeongjin of KBS World Business Department.
(Why are all the entrants gathered here?)
I'm here because
the show is not going to be able to
proceed as we planned and hoped for.
(Disappointment)
So we were going to cancel the whole show, but...
(But?)
(What's happening?)
But it would be a shame to waste
all the effort and passion you've all put in.
It'll be smaller,
but we'll hold it inside without an audience.
That's what we decided.
(Loud cheers at the sudden change of events)
(Entrants are relieved they can achieve their dreams)
(Expressing happiness with their whole body)
(The entrants start focusing again)
This is so great.
Gosh, that's tough. They worked so hard.
(Park Suhong and Stray Kids came for the entrants)
It just had to rain on this day.
(Stars on TV are here now!)
- Good luck, everyone! / - Good luck!
(Five minutes before the show begins)
(It's the first concert in history without an audience)
(But they're prepared for the stage of their dreams)
(They did fierce qualifiers only for this moment)
(The time has come to achieve their dreams)
(The entrants pledge to do their best)
(And have no regrets)
(Their dreams and passion)
(Were meant for this day alone)
(It all starts now)
Driving the world wild!
The biggest festival on earth!
This is the 2018 Changwon K-Pop Festival!
Hello, I'm your host Park Suhong.
This is the 8th Changwon K-Pop Festival
since it began in 2011.
This year we had 90 preliminaries in 75 countries,
the largest scale for this festival ever.
The 12 finalists, selected after a fierce screening,
will finally take the stage after getting training
and mentoring to develop their K-Pop skills in Korea.
Let me introduce todays' judges.
Lee Taehyeon, director of KBS Content Business Bureau.
(Judge / Director Lee Taehyeon)
Director Lee Myeongshin
of KBS World Business Department.
(Judge / Director Lee Myeongshin)
The choreographer for Wanna One, SHINee, and BoA.
Coach Choi Hyeongseob.
Look forward to this year's event.
The competition format
has changed quite a bit.
Up until last year, one team took the stage at a time,
and selections were made at the end,
But this year, there are 6 categories
and 2 teams will compete in each.
Let's get started
with the first category.
Best Boy Group Performance.
Bulgaria vs. Thailand.
(Best Boy Group Performance)
(Bulgaria (TOXIC) vs. Thailand (K-BOY))

(Average age: 18.2)
(TOXIC has the youngest average age of all finalists)
K-Pop is quite popular in Bulgaria.
Mainly because of mainstream groups like BTS and EXO.
(Bulgaria has 50-60 K-Pop cover dance groups)
(TOXIC is the best among them)
Oh my god, we're accepted to go to Korea,
we've got to go and compete against the world."
I was like, "Oh my god!
I'm going to go to sleep."
Our strongest part is Kiro. He's handsome.
(TOXIC's cute member Kiro)
(TOXIC has powerful, sharp moves)
(Manliness hidden behind the cuteness)
Vote for us!

Hi, I'm Shefa Tabassum.
I'm from Bangladesh and I've been selected as
one of the top 12 contestants
in the Changwon K-Pop World Festival 2018.
I got to know about K-Pop through Super Junior.
(Super Junior)
(She learned of Korean culture and music through them)
That motivated me
to discover my talents and that's why I'm here.
I performed in a lot of other competitions as well
in Bangladesh and lots of other K-Pop related events.
I've been a fan of Wonder Girls for a long time.
Sunmi has very bold, strong choreography.
I want to be a singer and performer.
(A special gift for Shefa)
(A huge smile)
Hi, I'm Sunmi.
(A video message from Sunmi to Shefa)
Shefa Tabassum from Bangladesh!
Congratulations on coming to Korea
with "Gashina" and representing your country.
(Watching Shefa's dance video)
Whoa.
Whoa! She watched my videos?
(Watching carefully)
Wow.
People who cover my dances
often emphasize the acting parts.
(What does Sunmi think of Shefa's "Gashina"?)
It's hard to fill the stage alone like that.
(Shefa finds the whole situation shocking and amazing)
Her body line is nice
and the acting parts are amazingly good.
But the moves should have a bit more energy.
♪ Why are you leaving such a pretty girl? ♪
Just put in a burst of energy at that part.
Good luck, Shefa from Bangladesh!
I'll be rooting for you!
(Ecstatic)
I'm so happy. I'll practice harder.
This encouraged me to do better onstage
and I hope I get to pull it off.

(Alexi, 20 years old)
(Paulina, 17 years old)

But unfortunately we were never able to
make it to the K-Pop World Festival finals.
We finally did it after 3 years
and are so happy.
(Endless challenges for K-Pop)
We were so happy when we heard we were accepted.
I cried and my mom cried.
We all cried.
(Their only goal was the Changwon K-Pop World Festival)
(Secret weapon: gayageum)
The reason we chose the gayageum
was to show K-Pop
in a diverse way.

(U.S.A (HARU))
We are HARU!
And we're from Rutgers University,
we're a K-Pop dance cover club in New Jersey,
and we're representing America.
(Introducing Team HARU)
HARU started in 2011 with only 5 people.
Today it has grown and
over 100 people come to the club now.
(These are the top 6 members of HARU!)
(John, Hailey, Rose, Julia, Carrie, Hannah)
K-Pop is truly, in itself, fun.
Even the dancing is just really fun.
It's really cool to be able to do
a K-Pop dance that you learned
and that somebody else learned at a different time
at a different location but then when you meet up
and join together, you already know the same dances.
It's just a cool connection you have
with everybody around the world.
(And a famous male member of Team HARU)
For me personally, it doesn't matter
if it's a boy group or girl group.
I just think that all dancing is fun
and it was actually my idea
to do this song
because I focused more on the performance aspect
and I thought this would be a good competition song.
(The song is...)
("Be Natural" by Red Velvet)
It's a great song and we're all fans of Red Velvet.
I think the choreography itself is perfect for us
in that we can show a lot of performance
because that's something we do very well.
And we also really like using the chairs as a prop.
We think it's unique and different.

Hi, we're East2West.
East2West is a Montreal-based,

We release weekly K-Pop cover videos
as well as original choreography
on our YouTube channel.
We also do local events as well as
events outside of the city.
Some of the most notable ones are...
(East2West has performed at other K-Pop festivals)
We were the opening dance acts for HyunA's concert
in Montreal and a Heize concert
that happened in Toronto.
(East2West does a lot of BTS in particular)
(What does BTS mean to East2West?)
(The girls respond shyly)
(Happy)
BTS holds a very special place in our hearts.
Role models and inspiration.
Seeing them work so hard
makes us want to work even harder,
whether in dance or any other aspect in our lives.
(They perfectly cover BTS's tough dances)
(Why do they cover such hard boy group dances?)
Because we want to show that girls
are able to do intricate, powerful choreography
and be just as strong and good as boys.
(How does East2West respond to what BNX said?)
(Laughter) Challenge accepted!
We welcome your thunder,
but we're going to bury you in Canadian snow.
