CJ ENM’s “M COUNTDOWN IN FRANCE” Lights Up Paris With Korean Culture

In a dazzling showcase of Korean culture and music, CJ ENM recently wowed Paris with “M COUNTDOWN IN FRANCE,” marking the successful European launch of the K-Pop Chart Show, and highlighting the global appeal of K-Pop.

On the night of October 15, the Paris La Défense Arena, Europe’s largest concert venue, saw a record-breaking attendance of over 22,000 fans. The evening kicked off with an electrifying performance by Taekwondo group K-Tigers and ATEEZ, setting the stage for a night of K-Pop and Korean culture.

ATEEZ, along with other K-Pop acts like EL7Z UP, DREAMCATCHER, ZEROBASEONE, TREASURE, MONSTA X’s ShowNu X HyungWon, NCT DREAM, and SHINee’s TaeMin, kept the energy soaring with their hit songs.

Special stages, like “DREAM STAGE” featuring ZEROBASEONE and “Your Name” with ATEEZ, ZEROBASEONE, and NCT DREAM, had the audience buzzing with excitement. EL7Z UP even covered BLACKPINK‘s ‘Pink Venom,’ making their first European performance unforgettable.

Closing out the spectacular evening was none other than K-Pop legend PSY, who brought ‘GANGNAM STYLE’ back to Paris after eleven years.

CJ ENM, known for delivering diverse and boundless entertainment experiences to global fans, extended the reach of K-Culture and K-Pop with “M COUNTDOWN IN FRANCE.” The event also featured Kep1er’s ‘Fresh Wave BUSAN 2030’ music video in support of “Busan’s World Expo 2030” bid.

We are delighted this special show became an opportunity for us to promote the traditions and culture of Korea in the city of Paris. With a firm belief in the limitless potential of K-Pop and K-Culture, we will continue to be at the forefront of expanding the foundations of Korean culture.
