The Korean Cultural Centre in Abu Dhabi is hosting a virtual live-streamed concert by K-pop boy band D-Crunch, on its YouTube channel.
The event, which will take place at 5pm on Tuesday, celebrates the 50th anniversary of the founding of the UAE, as well as Dubai Expo 2020.
In addition to performing their tracks such as Stealer, Across the Universe, Are You Ready? and My Name, D-Crunch have also promised to unveil new music during the event.
The group will also sing a cover of the Arabic song Ensay, a 2019 duet by Mohamed Ramadan and Saad Lamjarred, and will deliver a special message to celebrate the occasion.
During the concert, there will also be a Q&A session where the band will select eight questions from fans to answer. Fans whose questions get picked will have a special selfie sent to them by group members. Questions can be sent here and must be submitted by Sunday.

Who are D-Crunch?
D-Crunch is an eight-member group that debuted in 2018 and consists of rappers Hyunho, OV, Minhyuk, Chanyoung, Jungseung, and Dylan, and vocalists Hyunwook and Hyunoh.
Short for Diamond-Crunch, the band has a foundation in hip-hop and has cited fellow K-pop group BTS as one of their role models.
They released their debut album 0806 in 2018, and have put out four EPs since, most recently with Daydream and the lead single My Name, which came out in April.
The group has visited Abu Dhabi before, performing at the Cultural Foundation and holding a fan meet and greet for the Korean Festival in October 2019.
D-Crunch will perform on Tuesday at 5pm on the Korean Cultural Centre's YouTube channel

Why your domicile status is important
Your UK residence status is assessed using the statutory residence test. While your residence status – ie where you live - is assessed every year, your domicile status is assessed over your lifetime.
Your domicile of origin generally comes from your parents and if your parents were not married, then it is decided by your father. Your domicile is generally the country your father considered his permanent home when you were born.
UK residents who have their permanent home ("domicile") outside the UK may not have to pay UK tax on foreign income. For example, they do not pay tax on foreign income or gains if they are less than £2,000 in the tax year and do not transfer that gain to a UK bank account.
A UK-domiciled person, however, is liable for UK tax on their worldwide income and gains when they are resident in the UK.
