[Dispatch=Reporter Lee A-jin] Leading K-pop artists will heat up Turkey's largest music festival.

The 'Istanbul Festival' said on the 12th, "Kwon Eun-bi, MONSTA X, Sun-mi, and ATEEZ will take the stage at the festival held at Festival Park Yenikapi on the 14th and 15th."

The festival marks its fifth edition this year as Turkey's largest-scale music festival. It kicked off on the 1st and runs through the 16th. For the first time this year, a 'Korea Festival' section was newly established and K-pop artists were invited.

Kwon Eun-bi and ATEEZ will take the stage on the 14th. Kwon Eun-bi will present hit songs and a cover stage of Dua Lipa's 'Levitating'. ATEEZ is expected to raise the heat with powerful performances.

Sun-mi and MONSTA X will perform on the 15th. Sun-mi has prepared a setlist that suits Istanbul's summer night. MONSTA X will impressively close out the finale with a powerful live performance.

This concert was planned by the Korean Cultural Center in Turkey as a special program commemorating Liberation Day. The aim is to reflect on the meaning of Liberation Day and strengthen the friendship between Korea and Turkey.

Lee Yeon-jung, representative of Jung Art & Company, the official Korean partner, said, "It is meaningful to commemorate Liberation Day at a global festival," and "We are pleased to be able to share K-pop and Korean culture with local audiences."
