DAY6 becomes the first K-pop band to enter Gocheok Sky Dome “I can‘t believe it, it means a lot”

The popular band DAY6 revealed their thoughts on entering Gocheok Sky Dome.

DAY6 held their solo concert ‘2024 DAY6 Special Concert ‘The Present’’(2024 DAY6 Special Concert ‘The Present’) at Gocheok Sky Dome in Gyeongin-ro, Guro-gu, Seoul at 6 PM on the 21st. This two-day concert, following the previous day, met with a total of 38,000 My Day (official fandom) over two performances.

On this day, DAY6 opened with ‘Colors’ from their 2015 debut album ‘The Day’, followed by ‘I Need Someone’ and ‘Monster’ stages. After completing the opening stage, they gave a powerful greeting to My Day and expressed their excitement by saying, “We’re back again this year. Welcome to the 2024 concert ‘The Present’. But the location is not ordinary”.

Wonpil said, “We can‘t believe this day has come for us. We’re standing here at Gocheok Sky Dome right now.
