SM Entertainment held an internal discussion session dubbed the "SMile Impact" on Wednesday to gear up for the 10th edition of its SMile Music Festival.
"Over the past 10 years, SMile Music Festival has established itself as a unique program that combines SM Entertainment's core competencies with social contributions,” the agency said in its press release on Thursday. “We will continue to strive to help more young people nurture their dreams and grow healthily through this program."
Attended by SM Chief Administrative Officer Lee Sung-soo and approximately 70 relevant personnel, the session featured business presentations, discussions on the program's goals and some celebratory performances. SM staff discussed providing more opportunities for marginalized young people to engage in cultural and artistic experiences by offering them more training opportunities, mentorships and internships.
This year's "SMile Music Festival" will take place on Nov. 16 at Dongduk Women's University’s Centennial Memorial Hall in Seongbuk District, northern Seoul. The event will feature four vocal teams, two rock bands and four dance teams and will be livestreamed on SM Entertainment's social contribution YouTube channel.
