National K-pop contest winners from Spain, Brazil, Mexico and Argentina will also perform Korean boy band BTS' songs during the broadcast.
The cultural center has timed the event to coincide with the eighth anniversary of BTS' debut. An online K-pop festival will begin an hour prior to the competition with the BTS fan club known as Army.
