On the wake of the Maduro circus, no useful issue was discussed in the summit between Chinese and Korean leaders, so the issue of resuming concerts in China was also not discussed.
Which means the meaningless Korean concerts will continue.
Other than IU, and the trot singers , there are no more reason for Korean acts to have concerts in Korea were it not for the Chinese fans.
Korean concerts are profitable for the owners, who can charge the cost of the concert to outfits they own shares of, including IU.
A legal way to cheat earnings from the artists, a trick SM has used over all these years.
In the overseas, there are more eyes watching so that is harder to do.
Korea lacks suitable venues now, and doing concerts in pseudostadiums at Goyang and Incheon is simply draining and a waste of time.
However the companies like to do such events in Korea to impress Korean media, Korean reporters and Korean youtubers who can't follow them around the world.
E.Jae has signed up with WME, after her return to Korea was not received well. She, a US citizen, has realized there is no future for people like her in Korea, which still reveres figures like IU, Hwang Garam and Zo Zazz.
Again I wish BTS does not waste any time doing Korean concerts, to teach the few remaining fans in Korea that BTS does not forget the treatment done by Korean males which supported New Jeans instead of them.
