LG India’s K-Pop Contest sparks inspiration among India’s youth
The global influence of K-Pop continues to soar, and India is rapidly becoming a significant hub for this cultural phenomenon outside of Korea.

Recognizing this growing passion, LG India has taken the initiative to celebrate the love for Korean culture through the “All India K-POP Contest”—a platform that inspires young Indians to pursue their dreams while fostering cultural exchange and unity.
