Singer Kwon In-seo will perform at the "LEVEL UP" game music orchestra concert, scheduled for 6 p.m. on September 20 at the National Museum of Korea’s Theater Yong. The event, organized by the Korea Securities Finance Corp. Dream Sharing Foundation and hosted by the Korea Business Council for the Arts, highlights the professional development of young adults transitioning out of state care.
What is the ‘LEVEL UP’ Concert?
The "LEVEL UP" concert features orchestral arrangements of iconic tracks from popular video games. According to the event organizers, the program includes music from titles such as League of Legends, Brawl Stars, VALORANT, Everybody’s Marble, Tetris, and Ragnarok Online. The performance serves as a platform for the "Hope Dream Self-Reliance Youth Classic Ensemble," a program designed to help young musicians build careers and integrate into professional society.
Kwon In-seo’s Role in the Production
Kwon In-seo is set to take the stage to perform a collaborative set featuring the background music from League of Legends. She will perform alongside the orchestra and a live band. This appearance marks a return to the stage for the singer, who previously collaborated with artist HANZ in March to release a remake of the song "Missing You," originally featured on the Love in the Moonlight soundtrack.
Why This Event Matters
This concert represents a growing trend of integrating gaming culture with traditional orchestral performances in South Korea. By focusing on soundtracks from globally recognized titles like VALORANT and League of Legends, organizers aim to reach a broader, younger demographic while providing a professional performance venue for emerging artists. The involvement of the Korea Business Council for the Arts signals a shift toward using cultural initiatives to foster professional stability for youth in transition.
