Generation-TTS) members -Taeyeon, Tiffany and Seohyun - will be joining the
biggest K-pop concert of the year - “Starhub presents MBC Korean Music Wave in

the trio has gained widespread popularity and recognition.
“Music Wave is a celebration of K-pop
music and we hope fans from around the region will come out in full-force to
support the 74 performers
on-stage”, said Taeyeon.Said Tiffany: “For one night only, K-pop fans can enjoy
hit songs and cool moves from 13 acts, so there will be something for everyone.”
Added Seo Hyun: “We hope the fans will support every single band, regardless of
who their favourites are, as Music Wave is all about the K-pop family coming
together.”
Fatfish Entertainment’s Founding
Partner, Lau Kin Wai said, “We know that K-pop fans in Singapore and around
Southeast Asia are some of the most passionate and loyal in the world, so Music
Wave is a special treat for them. This is the big one they’ve been waiting for.
To see 13 of their favourite acts perform on one stage at a great venue such as
the Gardens by the Bay will be a night to remember.”
