Prior to his first solo concert in Seoul Sunday evening, Grammy Award-winning R&B singer John Legend will first host a charity event on Saturday March 28 to benefit Korean orphans.

The ‘Night of Charity for Children’ may be the hottest ticket in Seoul right now. With only 75 tickets available, those fortunate enough to get in will enjoy a duet between Legend and Korean R&B singer T Yoon Mi-rae. All proceeds raised will go to various Korean orphanages as well as Legend’s Show Me Foundation, which funds programs to eradicate poverty in Mbola, Tanzania.


There will be a VIP reception for the attendees, and U.S. Ambassador to Korea Kathleen Stephens will be the special guest of honor. For information, e-mail seoulfoundation@yahoo.com.
