HyunA and Jay Park will be performing at the 2014 SXSW Music Festival (March 11-16) in Austin, Texas. Their names were on the lineup when the third round of artists was announced on January 7.
SXSW consists of a series of film, interactive and music festivals and conferences, and is the largest music festival of its kind. It looks like James Minor, the general manager of the SXSW Music Festival, thought that HyunA would be a good fit after appearing with PSY in the megahit “Gangnam Style.”
The festival includes not just American artists, but also artists and musicians from all over the world, coming together in a showcase-style music festival. Music lovers will get the chance to see over big names and relative unknowns perform at venues throughout the city.
This showcase looks like it’ll be HyunA’s first foray into the overseas market. HyunA appeared in PSY’s “Gangnam Style” music video and received the attention of music fans abroad. “Gangnam Style,” released in July 2012, has been viewed over 1.8 billion times to date. The amount of exposure she’s received on the international front has definitely helped.
Aside from her activities with 4Minute, HyunA’s been able to show a more sexy performance through her solo activities (“Bubble Pop” and “Ice Cream”) and her duo unit Troublemaker with Beast’s Hyunseung (“Now”). She made Billboard’s “21 Under 21: Music’s Hottest Minors 2011,” was also on a nominee on Billboard’s 2012 survey, “Justin Bieber: Who Should Be His New Girlfriend?” She has also met Scooter Braun, who represents PSY in America, and they discussed expansion into America.
Besides HyunA, other notable Korean acts on the lineup include Jay Park, Crying Nut, Idiotape, Jang Gi Ha and the Faces, Nell, No Brain, YB and Glen Check, a total of 15 from Korea.

Date: 2014-01-09 06:04 pm (UTC)If she was performing for an hour, that would be another thing, and at that point I would wonder what she would perform to fill in that time. I guess we'll find out when the times/her set list comes out. Maybe she'll do half an hour.
Obviously her management thinks it's worth it, but again, that's nearly 7,000 miles and a 14 hour flight, and at some point you have to measure the benefit versus the sheer difficulty of getting there.
