GOOD NEWS FOR NZKPOPPERS :)
Some of South Korea's top pop bands, with millions of fans and followers around the world, could be headed to New Zealand for a huge pop music festival with the aim of spreading "Hallyu" - or the Korean cultural wave.
As part of celebrations to mark 50 years of diplomatic relations between South Korea and New Zealand, the Korean Society is planning to bring the country's most popular female group, Girls' Generation, with other top pop groups such as 2PM and Kara, for a K-pop festival in the summer.
Celebrations to mark the "Korea-New Zealand Year of Friendship" start on Saturday with Korean Day at the North Shore Events Centre, where K-pop will be taking centre stage.
The South Korean Embassy will also be backing New Zealand's first national K-pop competition, to take place this year.
"K-pop has become a very important part of Korea's modern and dynamic culture, which has been gaining popularity around the world," said the republic's ambassador to New Zealand, Yongkyu Park.
"Its popularity is growing in New Zealand, and in a very short time, the number of K-pop fans here has grown into the thousands and there are many fan groups here."
Mr Park said New Zealand's participation in the Korean War more than 60 years ago started a relationship with South Korea that was still flourishing.
More than 60,000 South Koreans visit New Zealand each year, 30,000 live here, and 15,000 are in the country as international students.
"The potential for our relationship can be seen in the strong personal connections and friendships which are flourishing between the two peoples," he said.
A New Zealand K-Pop fans Facebook page, set up last year, has a following of more than 1200 fans.
Girls' Generation were last year named PR ambassadors for Visit Korea Year 2012 and headlined a sold-out K-pop show in New York's Madison Square Garden.
Millions around the world have come to share a common obsession with South Korean pop music and dramas in the Hallyu phenomenon.
Other events planned to commemorate the anniversary year include a Korean film festival and a food festival.
South Korean student Josie Lee, 21, said: "I think K-pop fans will be even more crazy than those who follow One Direction."
British pop band One Direction performed at three sold-out New Zealand concerts, and brought chaos to the streets of Sydney, where a dozen young female fans fainted.
Society spokesman Ted Min said the likely venue would be either "a stadium or a vineyard" that could accommodate the expected large crowd for the K-pop festival.

你知道吗?
是时候了..
真的下定决心了..
我不再动摇了.. :)
我不想要为你再伤心了..
你知道吗?
我真的对我们的感觉很不踏实..
从去年到现在..都是一样..
你知道吗?
我多么的希望我们真的可以见面..
但是你给我的感觉是你根本不想要见面..
你知道吗?
我渴望我们会天长地久..
渴望我们会长长久久..
但是到最后..
我们还是不可能的吧?
你知道吗?
我决定了..
再我们还没见面的时候,
我不再要让你“以为”我是你的女朋友..
因为我不是你的女朋友..
从来没有..
你知道吗?
从来没有见过面的你,
让我对你很没有安全感..
记得我跟你说过的话吗?
我希望你让我有安全感..
以前你没做到..
到现在..
还是一样没做到..
不想再等待.
也不想要期望.
如果你真的喜欢我,
就证明给我看吧..
