K-robots dancing to G-Dragon tracks could be heading to your country on a world tour by the end of this year.

That is, at least, the near future imagined by Choi Yong-ho, CEO of Galaxy Corporation, the AI-powered entertainment company managing G-Dragon, which recently opened Galaxy Robot Park in Gangdong District, eastern Seoul.

Inside the main arena, three robots take the stage, dancing to G-Dragon’s “POWER” (2024) and “HOME SWEET HOME” (2024), along with Taemin’s “Advice” (2021) and “IDEA” (2020). The world’s first robot K-pop park plans to hold three shows every weekend starting in June.

“From September, we’ll expand to more than six performances a day and stage at least 1,000 robot K-pop shows a year,” Choi told Korean media on Friday. “By the end of this year, we’re planning to take them on a world tour, which will also include far destinations like Africa, South America, and the Middle East.”

The robots were built by Unitree Robotics, the Hangzhou-based robotics company known for its boxing robots.
