From K-pop to indie bands and street dance, series runs every Friday and Saturday through Oct. 31
Hanam city and the Hanam Cultural Foundation will host the "2026 Second-Half Stage Hanam Open Concert" at the lawn plaza of Misa Lake Park on Saturday, featuring performances spanning K-pop, indie bands and street dance.
Now in its fourth year, Stage Hanam is an outdoor, community-friendly performance program held at venues across the city, designed so residents can enjoy a variety of live acts close to home.
The second-half open concert brings together multiple genres in one place — from cheerleading and street dance to indie music, pop singers and K-pop.
The show opens with a cheerleading performance by IGNIS, the spirit squad of Hanam's Sinpyeong Middle School. A youth street dance crew called MOD will follow with a high-energy set to keep the momentum going.
Indie band Bunrisugeo, known for improvising songs based on stories submitted by audience members, will also take the stage, promising an interactive experience that adds a distinctive twist to the evening.
Singer KCM will then perform signature tracks including "Annyeong" and "Bureotcheoreom Seset Senda." Known for his appearances on television programs including KBS 2TV's "The Return of Superman," KCM is expected to fill the autumn night with his characteristically emotive stage presence.
Girl group FIFTY FIFTY will close the show, performing fan favorites from home and abroad including "Cupid," "Gravity" and "Pookie."
The event will be hosted by college student buskers Kang Seok and Moon Hye-young, who served as MCs for Stage Hanam last year. The two will keep the atmosphere lively by engaging naturally with the crowd between acts.
The roughly two-hour concert is free to attend on the lawn plaza. Residents are encouraged to bring picnic mats and light snacks to enjoy a relaxed weekend evening with family, friends or partners.
Hanam city plans to continue Stage Hanam every Friday and Saturday through a farewell concert on Oct. 31, with performances held across the city — including the old downtown area and the Misa, Gamil and Wirye districts. The program aims to bring accessible live entertainment to neighborhoods throughout the city.
