South Korea's biggest K-pop agencies, HYBE, SM Entertainment, JYP Entertainment, and YG Entertainment, are reportedly working together to launch a massive global music festival that could rival Coachella
According to reports from South Korean media, the four companies are working on setting up a joint venture focused on concert planning.
The goal is to launch a large-scale music festival in South Korea by December 2027.

The festival is currently being referred to as 'Fanomenon', a name combining 'fan' and 'phenomenon'
It is expected to bring together artistes from all four labels on one stage, creating a lineup that could feature some of the biggest names in K-pop.
According to Chosun, the concept was first introduced by Park Jin-young, co-chair of South Korea's Presidential Committee on Popular Culture Exchange, during the committee's launch in October last year.
He described it as a global-scale event designed to bring fans together while expanding the reach of K-culture worldwide.

While excitement is already building, the project is still in its early stages
Details such as the final format, structure, and lineup have not been confirmed yet.
If it goes ahead as planned, 'Fanomenon' could become one of the biggest K-pop festivals ever created, with potential plans to expand beyond South Korea in the future.
