SM Entertainment (hereinafter referred to as SM) is launching 'SMTOWN 2022 : SMCU EXPRESS', a comprehensive content project where you can meet performances, albums, and exhibitions all at once.

The 'SMTOWN 2022' project is based on SMCU (SM Culture Universe), which executive producer Lee so-man has newly named as 'Metaverse Origin Story' under the concept of 'SMCU EXPRESS', and will present albums and exhibitions in advance as well as performances so that producers and SM can comprehensively experience future content in the metaverse.

'SMTOWN LIVE 2022: SMCU EXPRESS@KWANGYA', which will be held on 1월 1일, has been held in major cities around the world since 2008 and has set various records, and SMTOWN LIVE, which was the full-fledged launch of SM's mega-virtual nation MUSIC NATION SMTOWN through a virtual national proclamation ceremony in 2012, is a compilation of performance contents pursued by SM against the backdrop of 'SMCU EXPRESS STATION' where all artists gather in a virtual space called 'KWANGYA' (wilderness).

In particular, this concert is planned as a free concert to comfort and deliver hope to fans around the world who are tired of the prolonged COVID-19, and it is expected to be a great gift for global music fans, and it will be broadcast worldwide through YouTube, the newly launched global platform dedicated to Beyond LIVE, and the LG U+ Idol Live app/web.

Prior to this, '2021 Winter SMTOWN : SMCU EXPRESS', which will be released on 12월 27일, is SMTOWN's first winter album in 10 years since 2011, and SM singers who are active around the world will participate in the album, where you can find not only songs by the team but also various member combinations that have never been seen anywhere else, and will be available for pre-order from today (10th).

In addition, the media content exhibition 'SMTOWN EXPERIENCE: PLAY@KWANGYA', which will start on 12월 30일, is expected to attract the interest of music fans by playing video content that shows the project at a glance using the LED display board located on the first floor of SM's Seongsu new building.

Meanwhile, the concept poster for 'SMTOWN 2022 : SMCU EXPRESS', which was released on SMTOWN's official SNS account on the 10th, caught the attention of the artist lineup as it marks the start of a special project where performances, albums, and exhibitions can all be met.
