According to concert promoter Live Nation Korea on the 27th, Bruno Mars will hold concerts in Korea over a total of four days—May 21–22 and 25–26 of next year—at the Main Stadium of the Goyang Sports Complex.
Since his debut in 2009, Bruno Mars has released numerous hit songs, including “Just The Way You Are,” “Grenade,” “When I Was Your Man,” and “That’s What I Like.” He also gained immense popularity with “APT.,” a collaboration with K-pop girl group member Rosé.
Bruno Mars has sold over 150 million albums worldwide, and in January of last year, he became the first artist in the history of the music streaming platform Spotify to surpass 150 million monthly listeners. He has had a total of 10 number-one hits on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart and has won a total of 16 Grammy Awards.
This concert marks his first visit to Korea in approximately four years, following his performance at the Jamsil Sports Complex Main Stadium in June 2023. Bruno Mars released his fourth studio album, *The Romantic*, last February and kicked off a new world tour bearing the same name in April.
