'Indie 30th Anniversary Festival & Exhibition' will be held on September 25 and 26 at the ㅎㄷ (Hongdae) Café located in the Mapo District of Seoul.
This event will showcase the past and present of indie music across a total of six floors, each with its own theme. On the 9th floor Rooftop, paid performances by talented bands will take place, while the 7th floor Media Hall will screen documentaries and music videos that cover the history of indie music. The 5th floor Gallery will feature a photo exhibition capturing moments from the past 30 years of indie music, and on the 4th floor, a busking stage for emerging musicians will meet the audience.
Additionally, on the 6th floor LP Hall, selected indie music will flow in a playlist format, offering a gentle emotional experience.
'Indie 30th Anniversary Festival & Exhibition' is organized by MY Music and sponsored by Korea Music Coalition. It has been selected for the Korea Creative Content Agency’s support program for popular music space planning and is receiving production support.
A representative from the organizing company noted, "This event has been planned to commemorate the efforts and dedication of musicians, venues, and fans who have maintained Korean indie music over the past 30 years," adding, "Despite numerous challenges, it is because of the artists who sought to express their voices, the small venues that preserved the stage, and the audiences who filled those spaces that Korean indie music has been able to continue until now."
He continued, "This event will be an opportunity to look back on 30 years of journey and share the various stories contained within through performances and exhibitions," stating, "It will be a meaningful time to illuminate the past of indie music, record the present, and imagine the future."
