Coldplay adds another Seoul show date to Korean leg of world tour

Coldplay added another Seoul show to its ongoing “Music of the Spheres” world tour, concert organizer Live Nation Korea said Thursday.

The added date is April 24 next year, totaling five shows in the capital. The rest of the shows will be held on April 16, 18, 19 and 22.

All shows will be held at the Goyang Stadium in Gyeonggi.
