Evidence that the K-pop pie is expanding is visible again today

Right now, most of SM's major lineups are overseas.
A fan mentioned yesterday that they were going to some joint concert in Japan. Following yesterday's 127 concert vlog,
they showed themselves attending some "nation" event in Japan,
and there are many talented fans who speak Japanese very well.
Even [the fan] reads Shin-chan in Japanese, and while meeting a Japanese fan (Czennie) during the event, they were able to maintain a continuous conversation in everyday Japanese.
Looking at the venue there,
it seems Chanyeol is there too,
and N-WISH is performing there as well.
The main purpose was to see Jaeno and Jaemin, but as I watched the other lineups being announced,
the Tokyo Inkigayo popped up.
I saw RIIZE and Hearts2Hearts there, and Kiki appeared too.
I'm sure even more K-pop artists will appear there.
127 and aespa are currently on overseas tours,
so it's possible for most of them to be away from Korea like this on certain days.
