Singer Ailee has been invited to perform at the 'G20 Summit'.

Ailee will take the stage at the 'Ubuntu with K-Culture – Korean Culture Festival' on November 6 in Pretoria, South Africa, at the SunBet Arena.

This performance is an event co-hosted by the Embassy of the Republic of Korea in South Africa, the Korean Cultural Center, and KOTRA to celebrate the upcoming 'G20 Summit' in South Africa this November.

Ailee will become the first K-pop solo artist to perform in South Africa, drawing significant attention. Tickets for the 'Korean Culture Festival' sold out immediately after they went on sale.

With her powerful vocal skills, she has gained a high level of popularity locally, especially after singing OSTs for popular dramas such as 'I Will Go to You Like the First Snow', which has increased her recognition.

Her agency, A2Z Entertainment, expressed, "We are thrilled to meet K-pop fans in a place where exchanges are not easy due to geographical issues." They added, "As this performance (in which Ailee is participating) is a meaningful stage, we will prepare a repertoire that allows the audience to fully experience the charm of K-pop."

Meanwhile, Ailee will hold a solo concert in Los Angeles, USA, on the 16th. She has also joined the judging panel for SBS-TV's 'Global Bailed Musician'.
