Description

Over the past decade, global interest in Korean entertainment has exploded—but what’s really happening on the ground? Beyond the glitz of K-pop, Seoul’s underground music scene has been a driving force of innovation, home to groundbreaking producers and artists pushing electronic music in bold new directions. At the heart of this evolution is Seoul Community Radio (SCR), an essential platform championing the underground for nearly a decade. Now, with SM Entertainment’s ScreaM Records actively scouting and investing in electronic music talent, the lines between the underground and mainstream are blurring like never before.
