Gummy and K.Will Set to Headline Korea Season in UAE
Renowned South Korean vocalists Gummy and K.Will are set to grace the stage at the upcoming Korea Season event in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. This cultural celebration, scheduled for Friday and Saturday, is part of the broader Korea360 initiative organized by South Korea’s Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.
The Korea Season event will feature a variety of performances, including renditions of popular Korean drama soundtracks by Gummy and K.Will. Additionally, the fusion gugak group Queen will perform on both days, and will offer a modern twist on traditional Korean music.
Attendees can also immerse themselves in cultural experiences such as trying on hanbok (traditional Korean attire) and participating in Korean calligraphy sessions. The event will also reflect zones dedicated to K-pop exhibitions and promotional videos, providing a comprehensive glimpse into contemporary Korean entertainment.
Kim Hyun-jun, the ministry’s director general of international cultural affairs, expressed optimism about the initiative, stating that the event is expected to raise local interest in Korea360 and create opportunities to connect the popular culture of ‘hallyu’ (Korean wave) with those interested in Korean arts and culture.
He further emphasized that UAE Korea360, along with its counterpart in Indonesia, will serve as pivotal bases supporting Korean wave-related companies’ expansion into Middle Eastern and Asian markets.

‘No Smoking, No Nudity’ — Spyro Opens Up About the Values That Shape His Work
Nigerian singer Spyro speaks on his values, morals, and how he applies them to his work.
He shared that when shooting music videos, he does not tolerate certain things because they do not align with his beliefs.
“You can’t be in a video with me and you’re smoking. That can’t happen. You can’t be in a video with me and you’re naked. That won’t happen. I have rules and regulations for working with people.
“I can’t be on a song that is not clean, to start with. Shoday, give your life to Christ. I said, ‘Shoday, give your life to Christ.’ He said I should continue mine while he focuses on his. Even if he’s not with Christ, he’s coming to Christ. That’s why I’m in this industry. It’s a gradual process.”

Babcock University Denies Issuing Carter Efe’s Alleged Certificate
Babcock University makes headlines as it speaks regarding content creator Carter Efe, who claimed that he studied at the school and graduated with a first-class degree.

“Babcock University does not issue ‘Honorary Certificates’ in recognition of undergraduate academic performance. Academic excellence, including the award of First Class Honours, is formally recognized only through the University’s official degree certificate and academic transcript issued by the Office of the Registrar.”
“There is no academic classification or degree known to Babcock University as ‘First Class Upper.’ The recognized classification is First Class Honours.”
