Bangkok – Boasting K-pop and Bangladeshi beatboxing, Eurovision stages its first Asia edition this Saturday, bringing the European song contest’s unique brand of kitsch and geopolitics to the world’s most populous region.
From Laos to Mongolia and the Philippines, 11 countries are competing in the inaugural Eurovision Song Contest Asia in Bangkok on November 14.
It will be broadcast live on television in participating countries and on YouTube — but a question remains over whether anyone will be watching.
