Cho Yong-pil to Embark on Nationwide Tour

Veteran singer Cho Yong-pil will embark on a nationwide tour this weekend. His last tour was two years ago when he released his 19th album "Hello" in 2013.

This time, the tour will begin in Daegu on Saturday, and make stops in Ilsan, Gyeonggi Province on Nov. 21, in Gwangju on Nov. 28, in Busan on Dec. 5 and in Seoul on Dec. 12.

Cho will be accompanied by his long-time partner band and sing his hit songs as close to the original version as possible.

Kim Seo-ryong, the director of the concerts, said, "We want to recreate Cho's hit songs as originally as possible. Every little detail, melody and arrangement will be made as close to the original version to allow the audience to feel Cho's musical journey in an authentic way."
