This event is being organized to provide a venue where Pyeongtaek citizens, as well as U.S. Forces Korea personnel and their families, can naturally communicate and interact through music and street culture. In particular, the festival aims to transform the Shinjang Shopping Mall area into a vibrant cultural street, invigorate the local commercial district, and foster a spirit of goodwill and friendship between Korea and the United States.


The main event will feature a rock performance by "Fire and Forget," the U.S. Air Force band from the Pyeongtaek Osan Air Base, as well as DJ performances by Newjeansnim, Heo Jokyo, and Sepo. There will also be a variety of participatory programs such as a street karaoke, street performances, experience booths, and a play zone, allowing both citizens and U.S. military families to take part directly.


The foundation plans to create a street festival atmosphere where citizens, U.S. Forces Korea personnel, and foreign residents can mingle together by offering a harmonious mix of performances and participatory programs.



The CEO of the Pyeongtaek International Exchange Foundation stated, "This event is a Korea-U.S. friendship street culture festival where Pyeongtaek citizens and U.S. Forces Korea personnel and their families can naturally come together." He added, "We hope that many citizens and military families will participate, bringing energy and a spirit of exchange to the Shinjang Shopping Mall area."
