Sung Si-kyung Moves Ahead with Year-End Concert After Manager Betrayal
Sung Si-kyungSinger Sung Si-kyung is pressing on with a year-end run of concerts, returning to the stage after the shock of a longtime manager’s betrayal.

According to his agency SK Jaewon, Sung will hold the “2025 Sung Si-kyung Year-End Concert” at Seoul’s KSPO Dome (Olympic Gymnastics Arena) for four nights, Dec. 25 (Thu) through Dec. 28 (Sun).

The annual brand show, which bears his name, is a tradition he’s kept for years. After much deliberation, he chose to honor his promise to fans again this year―planning to thank them in person and repay their patience with strong music and a polished, high-quality production.

News recently broke that Sung suffered financial losses due to misconduct by a manager he’d worked with for more than a decade. The incident left him reeling, and he reportedly even weighed canceling the year-end dates.

On social media the day prior, he shared how he’s feeling and confirmed he will go on with the shows.

“I’ve dealt with plenty of hate before, but I don’t think I’ve ever received this much comfort and support,” he wrote. “It reminded me I haven’t lived all that badly, and it truly helped. Thank you.”

“As a kid, I didn’t really get that old saying about how fortunes can flip,” he continued. “Now I feel being an adult means not getting swept up in the highs and lows―taking things calmly, wisely, and, though it’s not easy, with gratitude. This has made me think a lot about my life, who I am, and what it means to be a singer. I’m going to take on the year-end concerts.”

“For the fans who are cheering and waiting―and for myself―I’ll save the hard stuff for next year,” he added. “I’ll take care of my body and mind for the rest of this year and prepare a warm, fun finale that feels like me. Please keep cheering me on.”
