SPONSORS
The 2024 Berklee K-Pop & Beyond event is organized by the Berklee Professional Music Department and would not have been possible without the support of our interdepartmental and global partners including the Berklee Career Center, Berklee Global, International Student Services, and Berklee Office of Admissions. We are especially grateful to the CJ Cultural Foundation for their generous support and passion for K-Pop.
