Pop star’s exhilarating performance brought a much-needed burst of celebration to the protest-hit capital.
“Tonight is about us. Nothing outside matters. It’s just me and you.”
Performing for more than 20,000 fans at Seoul’s Gocheok Sky Dome, pop star Dua Lipa made it clear – the show must go on.
The Seoul leg of the singer’s “Radical Optimism” world tour began on Wednesday, coinciding with the aftermath of South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol’s declaration of emergency martial law late on Tuesday night, and the decree’s subsequent revocation the following day.
