Rosé from the group BLACKPINK surprised the audience by appearing as a guest at the Coldplay concert, turning the stage upside down.
On the afternoon of the 22nd, the main stadium of Goyang Sports Complex in Goyang City, Gyeonggi Province, hosted the fourth performance of Coldplay's concert in Korea, titled 'LIVE NATION PRESENTS COLDPLAY: MUSIC OF THE SPHERES DELIVERED BY DHL.' This concert series began on the 16th and will continue on the 18th, 19th, 22nd, and 24th-25th, totaling six performances. Each concert is expected to attract around 50,000 attendees, with a total of 300,000 spectators anticipated.
On this day, Rosé made a surprise appearance and performed the song 'Apartment' with Coldplay's frontman Chris Martin. It was truly a surprise guest appearance, as there was no prior announcement, and the audience erupted in even louder cheers upon seeing Rosé.
Rosé has been gaining global popularity with her duet 'Apartment' with pop singer Bruno Mars, released last October, which further heightened the excitement among the audience.
The audience sang along in unison to the chorus of 'Apartment,' creating a chorus of voices.
It has been officially announced that the K-pop group TWICE will be the guest for all performances of this Coldplay concert. They are set to perform a pre-show stage and collaborate with Coldplay on the song 'We Prey.'
In addition to TWICE, top K-pop artists have been making surprise guest appearances, including Jin from BTS on the 19th and Rosé on the 22nd, increasing the anticipation for the concert. Jin has a connection with Coldplay through his solo debut single 'The Astronaut,' which features Coldplay. BTS also released a collaboration song 'My Universe' with Coldplay.
Excluding this performance, Coldplay has only two concerts left. This is their first concert in Korea in eight years since their first visit in 2017.
Coldplay, consisting of Chris Martin (vocals, piano), Jonny Buckland (guitar), Guy Berryman (bass), and Will Champion (drums), is a world-renowned rock band that has sold over 100 million albums, including nine studio albums.
