Early last month, Canadian teen pop sensation Justin Bieber tweeted, “Excited to get to Korea to perform on October 10th. Maybe u will see my guys @psy_oppa and @IBGDRGN. Get the bbq ready.”

The tweet sparked rumors online that his label-mate Psy and Big Bang leader G-Dragon could be joining the pop star on stage at his upcoming Seoul concert.

Bieber and talent manager Scooter Braun arrived in Seoul on Tuesday and photos of Bieber together with Psy and G-Dragon were tweeted by manager Braun, causing further speculation about the two Korean stars possible involvement in Bieber’s first concert in Korea.

Bieber is slated to perform live in Seoul on Thursday at Seoul Olympic Park’s Gymnastics Stadium as part his “Believe World Tour” taking him to 39 different countries including the United Kingdom, UAE, Germany and Turkey. The singer is scheduled to perform 151 shows and attract approximately 1.8 million fans during the tour.
