Pop superstar Beyonce will return to Korea in October to perform for local fans, concert organizer BH4 Entertainment announced Thursday.
This will be the multiple Grammy Award-winning singer's second performance here after her Korean concert debut in 2007.
In the concert titled "I Am… Tour in Seoul," she will sing tracks from her third album, "I Am… Sasha Fierce," which was released last November.
She will showcase the album concept of juxtaposing her two identities, as "sweet lady" Beyonce and her alter ego, "the stage animal" Sasha Fierce.
The glamorous diva will be strutting onstage in specially designed costumes by designer Thierry Muglar. Fans can also look forward to seeing Beyonce joined by Sugar Mama, a band the singer put together through an audition for her 2007 tour.
Chosen as Billboard magazine's 2009 Woman of the Year, Beyonce has sold over 7.5 million albums worldwide.
