‘SM concert-missing’ Taeyeon, holding Asia tour… Starting with gymnastics in March [Official]

Girls‘ Generation’s Taeyeon will be holding a new concert after 1 year and 7 months.

Taeyeon will be holding ‘TAEYEON CONCERT - The TENSE’ (Taeyeon Concert - The TENSE) for 3 days from March 7th to her birthday, the 9th, at the KSPO DOME in Olympic Park, Seoul. This is the first new tour in about 1 year and 7 months since ‘The ODD Of LOVE’ held from June to August 2023.

This concert will visit a total of 8 regions as an Asian tour, starting in Seoul, Taipei on March 16, Manila on the 29th, Jakarta on April 12, Macau on the 26th, Singapore on May 3-4, Bangkok on May 31-June 1, and Hong Kong on June 7.

Tickets for this Seoul concert will be available on Melon Ticket, with fan club pre-sales opening at 8 PM on the 14th and general sales opening at 8 PM on the 16th.

Meanwhile, Taeyeon will be attending SM 30th Anniversary Concert ‘SMTOWN LIVE’ at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 11th and 12th. 2025’ will not be participating in the Seoul concert.

As netizens‘ curiosity grew regarding this, Taeyeon said on the 6th through a fan communication platform, “It’s definitely not that I don‘t do it because I don’t have the motivation and don‘t want to do it. I just want to be sincere and love the stage and do my best, but I’m seriously thinking about it because they aren‘t helping me out much.” She expressed her frustration by saying, “I’m saying this to Sowon (the fandom) because I‘m afraid that they might misunderstand me even a little.” When a fan said, “The company must have their own circumstances. It must be difficult,” Taeyeon pointed out, “The reason is that they ‘forgot to convey it, so it must be difficult.”
