The Monthly SM Concert series will be available exclusively on the SMTOWN channel, the Samsung TV Plus destination for SM Entertainment content. Available in Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, Mexico and Korea, the collaboration will bring premium K-Pop performances to growing fan communities in these markets.

A Monthly K-Pop Stage, Built for Fans

To kick off the Monthly SM Concert series, NCT WISH’s first concert tour, “’INTO THE WISH: Our WISH’ ENCORE IN SEOUL,” will premiere live on Saturday, May 30 at 7 p.m. local time. Following the premiere, fans can tune in to the SMTOWN channel every Saturday at 7 p.m. for encore programming and future monthly concert streams, creating an easy weekend rhythm for watching SM performances from home.

With more SM artists and concert streams to be announced, the series will offer fresh performances and encore programming throughout the year, giving fans more ways to watch and revisit the artists they love on the biggest screen at home.

Viewers can also use SmartThings on any smartphone or Samsung TVs to set reminders before each stream, so they never miss a moment. For fans with compatible connected Samsung devices at home, SmartThings can help create a richer viewing environment by adjusting sound and lighting settings, bringing more of the concert atmosphere into the living room.

The Best Seat Is at Home
