The supposed comeback of the "Kings of K-pop" BIGBANG, which was their anticipated attendance at the Coachella Festival in the U.S., may or may not happen as the annual event has been postponed to October in light of the coronavirus outbreak. It would've been their first-ever stage performance after all the members have finally fulfilled their military service.
The Coachella Festival is one of the grandest festivals held in California, accumulating up to 300,000 audiences every year. Everything was set since last year, 2019, and fans are already excited to see the group after confirmation from the organizers that the famous K-pop group will be performing not once but twice on the big stage.
However, amidst the outbreak, the event's lineup has also the risk of changing, depending on the availability of the artists who are going to participate in the event. This means that BIGBANG may or may not perform at Coachella.
The outspread of coronavirus (COVID-19) has already infected thousands of people all over the world and caused the death of more than 4,000 citizens. Being one of the biggest music festivals in the US, it is expected that a lot of people from across the globe are going to come.
The artists' and attendees' health and security are the festival's priorities though. According to the international media, the giant pop festival, which was originally set this April, has been moved to October.
It is truly dismaying for VIPs who have been waiting for their idols' return, and now they have to endure additional months of waiting. Through their social media accounts, they have been expressing their longingness for their ultimate group and are planning to make another countdown until October, because waiting for their favorites is always worth it.
In addition to this, not only VIPs are sad that they are not going to have the re-organized four-member group's comeback stage the sooner they want, but also the supporters of EPIK HIGH, a Korean hip hop group, who were supposed to have their comeback as well to the U.S. music festival.
EPIK HIGH was the first Korean act that has ever performed on the annual event, followed by the worldwide girl group BLACKPINK. BIGBANG will be the third K-pop group to perform there if ever.
Nevertheless, many fans choose to cheer up their co-fandoms and tell one another that time is fleeting, and the next thing they know it's already October! And of course, BIGBANG members' health are thankfully prioritized.
