Derived from a combination of ‘æ’ (avatar and experience) and ‘aspect’, SM Entertainment’s aespa consists of four members: Karina, Winter, Giselle, and Ningning who have continued their tremendous trajectory since their debut with record breaking music releases and live performances, including a main stage set at Coachella in 2022 and history making performance as the first K-pop act to perform at the 2023 Governor’s Ball Music Festival in New York. With the success of their critically acclaimed 4th mini album ‘Drama’ and first world tour across Asia, North America, South America, and Europe in 2023, aespa continues to level up from every angle, garnering attention from prolific media outlets such as The New York Times, Forbes, Rolling Stone, Teen Vogue, NYLON and TIME. As the first SM Entertainment group to tour Australia, 2024 aespa LIVE TOUR – SYNK : PARALLEL LINE promises to be one of the biggest K-Pop tours of the year. With unmissable dance performances, stunning visuals and powerful vocals, this is not only a tour, but a world-bending experience where æs, aespa, & MYs meet.
