The Seoul Concert Every Fan Wishes They Could Crash
Before the single even drops, Xdinary Heroes are taking over Seoul's Olympic Park Handball Gymnasium for a three-night concert series, "Xdinary Heroes Summer Special ," from July 4 to 6. This is their first time headlining at this massive venue, and they're set to perform "FiRE (My Sweet Misery)" live for the very first time. If you've ever dreamed of moshing at a K-band gig, this is the moment.
And if you're stuck streaming from your phone, at least you know you're not alone-every fan outside Korea feels your FOMO.
World Tours, Lollapalooza, and That "Anyone Can Be a Hero" Vibe
Xdinary Heroes aren't just blowing up in Korea. After kicking off their second world tour in May, they're headed to Lollapalooza Chicago on July 31, making their U.S. festival debut. For a band that debuted in December 2021, that's a wild ride-one that's got Indian fans dreaming of the day they'll see them live in Mumbai or Bangalore.
Their name, short for "extraordinary heroes," is all about the idea that anyone, anywhere, can be a hero.
And honestly, who doesn't need a little of that energy right now?
When K-Band Feels Like Home
There's something about Xdinary Heroes' rise that hits home for Indian youth. Maybe it's the way they blend genres and break rules, just like our own indie bands hustling in college fests and rooftop gigs. Or maybe it's the universal feeling of wanting to stand out and be extraordinary, even when the world feels ordinary.
Either way, this comeback isn't just a K-pop moment-it's a youth anthem in the making.
So set your alarms for July 7, crank up the volume, and get ready to let "FiRE (My Sweet Misery)" soundtrack your summer. Because if anyone knows how to turn misery into a mosh pit, it's Xdinary Heroes.
Reporter's note: There's a wild, rebellious energy in Xdinary Heroes that feels super relatable-like the spirit you find in every Indian college band, just with a bit more eyeliner and a lot more pyrotechnics.

'There's a lot being said about me, most of you don't know the full story. If ...,' says Soham Parekh, the techie accused of working for multiple companies simultaneously
Soham Parekh An Indian software engineer, Soham Parekh , is at the center of controversy following allegations of moonlighting at multiple US startups simultaneously. The accusations surfaced when Suhail Doshi , co-founder and former CEO of Mixpanel, publicly called out Parekh on Twitter, warning startup founders about his alleged deceptive practices. Doshi claimed that Parekh, who holds a Master's degree in computer science from Georgia Tech and a Bachelor's from the University of Mumbai, was secretly employed at three to four startups at once, targeting Y Combinator-backed companies. Doshi revealed that Parekh briefly worked at his company, Playground AI, but was terminated within a week after his alleged duplicity was uncovered. Doshi further escalated the issue by sharing Parekh's CV online, labeling it 'probably 90 per cent fake' and listing companies such as Dynamo AI, Union AI, Synthesia, Alan AI, and Fleet AI where Parekh allegedly held concurrent roles.

Responding to Suhail Doshi's post, Soham Parekh wrote, "There's a lot being said about me right now, and most of you don't know the full story. If there's one thing to know about me, it's that I love to build. That's it. I've been isolated, written off, and shut out by nearly everyone I've known and every company I've worked at. But building is the only thing I've ever truly known, and it's what I'll keep doing," he wrote. Parekh claimed he has faced isolation and rejection from companies and peers but announced he had signed an exclusive deal as a founding engineer with a single company in the video AI space, set to launch later this month.
