Laufey — the Icelandic-Chinese singer-songwriter and classically trained musician — brings her A Matter of Time world tour to Korea for a single night at KINTEX Hall 9 in Goyang. Her 2023 album Bewitched set a Spotify debut-week record for a jazz album and catapulted her to global recognition virtually overnight. She took home two Grammy Awards in 2025, including Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album.
Laufey’s live shows blend chamber pop and jazz in an intimate setting. She performs with a small ensemble and often incorporates cello — which she studied at Reykjavik’s music conservatory. The setlist draws heavily from Bewitched and her earlier EP Everything I Know About Love. Expect a quiet, textured, emotional show — not a high-energy stadium experience.
For listeners who found mainstream K-pop events too loud or hectic, Laufey’s concert offers a completely different atmosphere. Her Korean fanbase has grown significantly through Spotify and YouTube — demand is high, and this single-night performance makes it one of the harder tickets of the June season.
KINTEX is in Ilsanseo-gu, Goyang. Take Line 3 to Daehwa Station — KINTEX is connected. From central Seoul the journey takes about 50–60 minutes. The show is presented by Live Nation Korea; tickets available via Melon Ticket and Live Nation’s official platform.
