Sources & Methodology

This page documents where our information comes from and how we check it, so you can judge it for yourself.

Schedules & comebacks

Concert, tour and comeback entries are compiled from official sources first — agencies, artists' own channels, venues, promoters and official ticketing pages — corroborated with reputable music media. For each entry we record the source we relied on and the date we last checked it, and we are rolling out a visible “source · last verified” line and an official vs. unconfirmed marker on the schedule itself. Schedules change; always confirm with the official source before booking travel or tickets.

News

Our feed aggregates established music and K-pop outlets and links to the original article for each item — currently including Soompi, allkpop, Koreaboo, Billboard, NME and Rolling Stone — filtered so general-music outlets only surface when a story genuinely maps to a K-pop act. We add a small number of our own curated items only after verifying each against a real, dated article. We never fabricate a headline, date, source or URL.

Photos

We use only freely-licensed images from Wikimedia Commons (Creative Commons or public domain), verified to be the correct person or group. We do not use agency, fansite or press photos. When no free, verified photo exists, we show a plain initials avatar instead of an unverified image. Full details are on our Image Licensing & Attribution page.

Translations & localization

The site is published in 12 languages. Country and region names are localized with the browser's own internationalization data for consistency. AI assists with drafting translations; a human reviews facts before publication (see Editorial Policy).

How often we update

Schedule and news data are refreshed regularly and re-validated on a recurring basis. If you find something out of date, please tell us — see Corrections.
