Yes but Korea and neighbouring countries dealt with the pandemic a lot more efficiently than the US or Europe. Everything is currently closed, including the borders for now, and there is no telling when concerts and cultural gatherings will be allowed again.
It's very brave of Celine Dion and Harry Styles to plan a tour this year, but with how uncertain the situation is, it might not even happen.
I think they do have to continue to have concerts to cover their loans since they would rather not sell their possessions for a loss.
In Korea, it is the companies bearing the losses (except IU, but she is domestic and is not subject to the lack of overseas concerts), and the companies do have to answer to the govt and the stockholders, making a fast action harder.

Not a good idea even if outdoors and with decreased capacity. I'd rather this entire pandemic be completely over before such events take place again. I'm willing to wait just so everyone stays safe. It's better to just use this time to work on ourselves so we can enjoy all these great things once the pandemic is over.
Companies have to make money, though. Domesticists like IU and the trottists are doing fine, but acts who have to make lots of money from outside Korea are hurting

I doubt international kpop concerts will start again until idols get vaccinated and currently SK does not have a vaccination plan (they're waiting to see which vaccines are most effective). Kpop Concerts aren't coming back until 2022.
Idols and their staff will be getting priorities when they leave Korea. You know how the world works. They are like diplomats.

I am holding tightly to my MOTS floor tickets
Hope you can use it this year. Yes, Koreans are really vulnerable to peer pressure, so even if foreign singers do have concerts, the Koreans might refrain because of govt influences.

Not straight away but if COVID ever buggers off they will resume shows. I’m sure the groups are missing them.
The money they are missing out is simply ENORMOUS. They will try to start overseas tours, which will be less criticized by Koreans as that occurs outside of Korea and do not affect them directly, as soon as possible

Asians are less stupid when it comes to this and actually care about covid so I doubt it, they will keep doing online concerts through 2021
Or, more totalitarian. The peer pressure is enormous enough to discourage independent action.

Plus a few others who are popular, like Gidle. Acts like Dreamcatcher do have to go out since they don't make too much being stuck in Korea.

I think 2022 will probably be the earliest concerts start up again
Well, Celine Dion, Michael Buble and Harry Styles are planning to have concerts this year.

Whyknock is a student of history and when whyknock was browsing a bunch of articles whyknock encountered this
https://www.billboard.com/arti…heduled-coronavirus-list/
Celine Dion and Michael Buble are doing world tours, although some are still dithering. Harry Styles also plans to do a North American tour.
That means the singers know the world will kind of reopen
But there is no news from Big Hit to resume a world tour, and ditto to most other Kpop companies.
I am sure the biggest amount of money comes from tours so they would rather do that, but if they launch the tours, they can't return to K-o-r-e-a easily.
That means, as the trot craze subsides a bit, Whyknock's alleged bias could attempt to retake KPop again. The evidence is that she is now not announcing when her supposed new album would be released - she might be waiting till Big Hit and others announce their world tours so she could take over the empty Korea , telling Director Koreeda, who is said to direct a film with her, to get lost for a while.
(I am not sure whether Director Koreeda knows IU is a singer since IU's Japanese stint was not remarkable. She was probably recommended through Bae Doona, who had worked with Koreeda before, but if IU can re-climb the throne she had lost to BTS, Koreeda takes a back seat.)
As BTS and others travel outside Korea to fulfill their overdue concert obligations, Whyknock's alleged bias , plus the trottists, re-flood the Korean Pop scene.

so one can only be a Kpop artist when they are known is the US?
wtf, IU is a Korean POPULAR Music singer, she is treated above idol league but was seen as one during her rookie days
Another so-called "intelligent fans" who only see foreign=USA
Never knew China and the whole SEA is a part of Korea
On 2017 IU did exactly one foreign concert, at Hong Kong. So by that time her Chinese fame also had faded.
Only after the success of her dramas that she began to have more extensive concerts in SE Asia

I think you mistaken their names. Their Korean name is DBSK ( Dong Bang Shin Ki) and their Japanese name is Tohoshinki- TVXQ (Chinese Tong Vfang Xien Qi) In other words, the group has 3 known names in Korean, Chinese and Japanese, and TVXQ is the name they generally use right now. Like Girls Generation. Their name is Girls' Generation, but they are also known as SNSD because their Korean name is " Sonyeo Sidae " The remaining two members of the group are generally known as TVXQ, Changmin and Yunho mostly work in Japan, and it is this two-man group, TVXQ, that broke the record.
I call the 5 member era as TVXQ and the 2 member era as DBSK since the two eras are so different.

Baekhyun didn’t scream Tokyo dome for this disrespect.

why lol?
Actually, TVXQ performed at the Nissan stadium.
TVXQ set several records with their Time tour, which commenced at the Saitama Super Arena in April 2013. The duo became the first K-pop artist and the fourth foreign artist to embark on a five-dome tour,[139] and were the first foreign musical act to perform at the Nissan Stadium as a headlining artist.[140] The tour attracted a record audience of 850,000 people.[141] The tour grossed US$90 million, breaking Tone's record.[142]
And actually they broke a record by giving concerts there for 3 consecutive days.
In January 2018, Tohoshinki announced three shows at Nissan Stadium, as a grand finale of the tour, thus becoming the only foreign artists to perform at the venue twice, as well as the first artists to hold concerts at Nissan Stadium across three consecutive days.[23] They bring 225,000 fans from the 3 shows, to bring the total attendance to a million, making TVXQ the first overseas artist to mobilize millions of fans on a single tour in Japan.[24] They are reported to gain a revenue of 56,1 billion won (~50,4 million USD) for only 3 days concert in Nissan Stadium. More revenue were made from the concert goods than the tickets (with 29 billion won and 27,1 billion won separately).[25]
The 5 member TVXQ did not
