On the 4th, Allen of the idol group CRAVITY, who continues to build a global presence, will appear for a live interview on the global channel Arirang TV program ‘K-Culture Dive : Hallyu People’.
Allen, a CRAVITY member and the MC of ‘Simply K-Pop’, will appear to share firsthand behind-the-scenes stories from his global activities and candid talk from offstage.
Since debuting in 2020 with the CRAVITY debut album ‘HIDEOUT: REMEMBER WHO WE ARE - SEASON1.’, Allen has drawn attention for outstanding performances, steady stage manners, and active communication with global fans.
Based on his ability to communicate freely in English and Korean, he is also active as MC for Arirang TV ‘Simply K-Pop’, expanding his presence as a global host. He is regarded as an ‘MC-type artist’ who combines onstage charisma with a smooth hosting touch.
CRAVITY recently wrapped up its solo concert in Japan, ‘CRAVITY LIVE 2026 -Burn-’, successfully, creating special memories with local fans.
At the show held at the Pacifico Yokohama National University Hall in Japan, CRAVITY presented a diverse set, including Japanese versions of ‘AWAKE’, ‘PARANOIA’, and ‘Love or Die’, as well as the new Japanese track ‘BLAST OUT’, drawing an explosive response.
Through audience-seat events and fan-participation performances, they engaged closely with local fans, once again proving themselves a ‘performance powerhouse’.
CRAVITY is continuing a steep growth trajectory in the global music market. On the latest U.S. Billboard charts, the second mini album ‘GREENGREEN’ entered the main album chart ‘Billboard 200’ for two consecutive weeks, signaling a strong presence. The title track ‘REDRED’ has likewise steadily remained on the ‘Global 200’ and ‘Global (excluding U.S.)’ charts, demonstrating global popularity.
It is also enjoying a long run on the Spotify global charts and on major domestic music platforms, drawing attention as a next-generation global K-pop group.
CRAVITY also stood out at various award ceremonies last year, achieving meaningful results. At the 2025 ‘Asia Artist Awards’, it received the singer category ‘AAA Icon’, recognizing its global influence, and at the ‘Korea Grand Music Awards’, it received ‘Best Artist 10’ and ‘Best Stage’, proving outstanding performance prowess.
With solid live performances, energetic command of the stage, and teamwork, the group has earned the moniker ‘Perfo-vity (Performance + Cravity)’, winning ardent love from fans at home and abroad.
In this broadcast, Allen is expected to share candid stories about behind-the-scenes moments from the Japan concert, episodes of communicating with global fans, the unique teamwork and performance strengths of CRAVITY, and changes felt through MC activities. He will also reveal sincere aspirations about the kind of artist he hopes to grow into.
The Arirang TV ‘K-Culture Dive : Hallyu People’ episode featuring Allen of CRAVITY will air at 2 p.m. on Thursday, June 4, and can also be viewed afterward via the official Arirang TV YouTube channel.
The live interview with Allen is expected to serve as an important media resource to gauge the present and future of K-pop idols.
