The creative guys of "ONDO" band from South Korea attracted the attention of Ashgabat's music lovers. The postponement of their performance for one day due to airline overload further fueled interest in the group, so their concert was held with overwhelming demand at the Magtymguly National Music and Drama Theater. The majority of the audience in the hall consisted of young people who enjoy the K-pop music genre. By the way, the average age of the musicians from the group "ONDO" is 27 years old.

"Salam!" - guitarist Lukku greeted the audience in Turkmen language and caused a great applause of the audience. "Kop sagbol" - he thanked them for the applause. The interaction between the group and the audience was maintained throughout the evening.

The group "ONDO," consisting of three like-minded individuals, was formed under the influence of another globally popular Korean music group, "BTS." The concert opened with the song "Butter" from BTS's repertoire. The vocalist is Chongseul, and the percussion instruments are played by musician Minhoon.

What can young guys sing about? Of course, they sing about dreams, love, their loved ones, and the beauty of the surrounding world. This was evident from the titles of their performed songs, such as "I want to hug you," "You are very lovely," "25 years have passed, but feelings remain the same," "You are the most beautiful," "Trying summer," and others.

Chongseul presented one of the songs as unique, "Lullaby," as there are similar songs in every country. When Chongseul sang, the gentle melody that lulls Korean babies to sleep filled the entire space of the hall.

"Turkmenistan is a beautiful country with very beautiful people," said Chongseul at the farewell. "I am happy to have visited your country.

The concert by the group 'ONDO,' which was part of the Korean Culture Week in Turkmenistan along with the screening of Korean films at the Ashgabat Cinema Concert Hall, once again highlighted the unity in international friendly relations between our peoples. This fact confirms the justification of UNESCO's decision to include Ashgabat in the network of creative cities in the world."
