KOREA GAYOJE returns to SummerStage with a showcase of talent from the peninsula and its diaspora. The show features the K-Pop quartet Brave Girls, who since their debut in 2011, had a viral breakout last year with their 2017 single “Rollin’” peaking to #1 on the Billboard K-pop 100; Golden Child, a ten-member boy band known for their bass-heavy EDM sound and complex choreography who debuted on Billboard’s “World Digital Song Sales Chart” as the third K-pop Boy Group to be named on the Chart, holding the title for the highest debut record; and AleXa, the child of a Korean adoptee from Oklahoma whose career jumpstarted by a win on the K-pop audition show Rising Legends followed by her multilingual debut “Bomb" that made Billboard's Top 10 “World Digital Song Sales Chart.”
◆ Brave Girls
Brave Girls (consisting of 4 members: Minyoung, Yujeong, Eunji, Yuna) is a girl group formed by Brave Entertainment. Since their debut in 2011, they have had numerous hit songs such as "Rollin’," "We Ride," "High Heels," and "Chi Mat Ba Ram." They recently made waves with their 5th mini-album “Summer Queen,” then also with their 6th mini-album “Thank You,” in which they conveyed their sincerity to the fans who always stood by them.
In 2021, Brave Girls were also appointed as the new official ambassadors for the 2021 Korea tourism campaign “Level Up Your Rhythm of Korea” by the The Ministry of Culture, Sports, and Tourism and the Korea Tourism Organization (KTO).

Golden Child (consisting of 10 members: Y, Jangjun, Tag, Seungmin, Jaehyun, Jibeom, Donghyun, Joochan, Bomin, Daeyeol) is a K-pop boy band presented by Woollim Entertainment following the success of the group INFINITE.
Their name means "a perfect child that can only be found once every 100 years," also embodying the hope that they will lead the Korean music industry and set the trends for the next 100 years. On August 28, 2017, Golden Child burst onto the Korean pop scene with their first mini album and they quickly became one of the most sought after K-pop groups by the end of 2017.
In 2021, on the heels of their successful “Game Changer” album, Golden Child released “Ra Pam Pam,” with their vintage-inspired title song of the same name recognized for its catchy chorus and funky vocals. That year, Golden Child also won the “Choice Award” at the Asia Artist Awards.
