Just as every other year, Japanese music and entertainment label
Avex will be organizing "A-Nation" with its artists. This year,
however, the label is set to organize "musicweek", spreading
various artists across themed days.
Earlier this year, U-Kiss was already noted to have been added
to the line-up but more recently another three Korean groups were
revealed. SHU-I, a group which originally debuted in Korea in 2009
with "Bomb Bomb Bomb", is set to release its first Japanese full
length album in July. A-Jax, on the other hand, has yet to release
their Korean and Japanese debut, but were added nonetheless.
Joining these boy groups, YG Entertainment's 2NE1 is set to perform
on the concert as well.
2NE1 is set to appear on August 3rd, on "Verbal presents...
'Oto Matsuri'". The girl group already worked together with rapper
Verbal (m-flo) before, assuming they'll be doing a collaboration
stage on the said day.
On August 9th, U-Kiss, SHU-I and A-Jax will be joining the
"Asia Progress M" stage with various other Japanese artists
including co-ed group AAA, male solo singer Daichi Miura, male
group Deep and many more.
