Global Pop Touring: Netflix is turning “KPop Demon Hunters” into a real-world concert tour with AEG Presents for 2027, with cities and tickets still to come. Copyright Shake-Up (Japan): Japan’s copyright law overhaul approved May 15 adds a new performer/recording “neighboring” right for public background music, ending a decades-long gap for singers and producers. Live Music Business: Warner Music and GMM’s Thailand joint venture unveiled Gliide, a cross-border artist development platform built for global releases from day one.
