Flowdan, Eliza Rose & Yung Singh make Korean debut at Seoul Community Radio's Hajodaze YangYang

Seoul Community Radio has unveiled the impressive line-up for its third annual Hajodaze YangYang festival, set to take place on South Korea’s East Coast.

This free summer beach festival, scheduled for July 20 and August 17, 2024, is a testament to the growing affinity between Korea and UK dance music, a trend that has been sweeping Seoul's dancefloors and mainstream charts throughout the year.

Headlining the festival are UK heavyweights Flowdan, Eliza Rose, and Yung Singh, all making their Korean debuts.

Flowdan, known for his powerful presence in grime and d’n’b, headlines the Reverty Skatepark Stage in July. His performance marks a historic moment for Korean hip-hop, as he shares the stage with local grime pioneers Deadbois and drill trailblazers Dirt Play Records.

Yung Singh, fresh off his Coachella debut, and Eliza Rose, co-producer of the UK garage hit ‘B.O.T.A.’, will bring their dynamic sets to the Surfyy Beach stage in July and August, respectively.

The festival will further spotlight local talent such as Berlin-based Korean producer Shubostar, making her first local appearance since 2021, and the Hajodaze Vogue Crew, reflecting Korea's burgeoning ballroom scene.
