YG엔터테인먼트가 오는 4월부터 소속 가수들의 합동 월드투어 '2014 YG패밀리 콘서트'를 개최한다.

이번 월드투어에는 월드스타 싸이를 비롯해 빅뱅, 투애니원, 에픽하이, 이하이와 위너 등 소속 가수들이 대거 참여할 예정이다.

이번 공연은 YG사단이 2년만에 선보이는 월드투어로 일본의 오사카 교세라돔(4월 12일,  13일)을 시작으로 도쿄돔(5월 3일과 4일)으로 무대가 이어진다.

YG엔터테인먼트는 지난 '2011~2012 YG 15주년 기념 한·일 콘서트'에서 20만명의 관객을 동원했지만 이번에는 일본에서만 약 21만 명을 모을 수 있는 규모다.  

YG는 "올해는 싸이를 비롯해 빅뱅, 투애니원, 위너, 악동뮤지션, 이하이, 신인 걸그룹 등의 프로젝트가 예정돼 있어 그 어느 때보다 무대 구성이 풍성해질 것"이라 고 설명했다.

YG to launch family world tour

By Julie Jackson

Officials at YG Entertainment, home to some of the nation’s most popular K-pop acts, have announced that it will be launching the “YG Family 2014 World Tour” in April.

The tour will include YG’s biggest acts, including world star Psy, Big Bang, 2NE1, hip-hop trio Epik High, the newly debuted Lee Hi and idol boy band Winner, and will take the artists to various locations in Japan, China and Korea.

The tour will kick off in Japan at the Osaka Kyocera Dome for a two-day performance on April 12 and 13 before moving on to the Tokyo Dome on May 3 and 4. The concert series marks the entertainment agency’s first family concert in two years, following the 2011-2012 15th Anniversary Korea-Japan YG Family Concert. The last family concert attracted around 200,000 fans across Korea and Japan; this year, the Japan leg of the tour alone is expected to draw around 210,000 YG family fans.

Officials also went on to announce that YG has a number of projects planned this year for Psy, Big Bang, 2NE1, Winner, Lee Hi as well as the soon-to-debut brother-sister duo Akdong Musician, winners of reality survival program K-Pop Star 2.
