The Boyz has proven their reputation as a ‘concert hotspot’ in Japan as well.

The Boyz successfully wrapped up ‘THE B LAND in JAPAN’, held at the First Gymnasium of the National Yoyogi Stadium in Tokyo for three days from the 22nd to the 24th, heating up the Japanese archipelago.

The Boyz, who opened the Japanese fan-con with their debut song ’Boy‘, began the concert in a good mood by giving a warm greeting to fans whom they were meeting for the first time in a long time. After that, they heated up the concert with sections such as ’Nectar‘, ’Re-Wind‘, ’Bump & Love‘, and ’Blah Blah‘.

A game corner was also held where the members‘ cheerfulness stood out. They performed a series of popular challenges in Japan, famous lines, and stages that they really wanted to see. In particular, the choreography for songs released in Japan and songs they had not seen in a long time was included, receiving a warm response from fans.

Next, when the stages for ’THRILL RIDE‘, the 11 Princess VCR that was a hot topic at the Korean concert, and ’Breaking Dawn‘, the title song of their first Japanese album, were revealed, fans filled the concert hall with thunderous cheers and cheers. Here, the performance reached its highlight with a series of covers of ’Roar‘, ’Igloo‘ by Sangyeon, Juyeon, New, and Juhaknyeon, and ’Whiplash‘ by Jacob, Younghoon, Q, and Eric.

In particular, on the second day, a birthday event for member Kevin was held. They spent a meaningful day singing in Korean with the local audience, and the highlight of the Japanese fan-con was revealed after the ’TRIGGER‘(導火線)‘(TRIGGER) stage. They made a surprise appearance in an outfit reminiscent of a prince, not the princess costumes from the previous VCR.

They went around the concert venue in a parade car and performed ’Dancing Till We Drop‘, ’Fire Eyes‘, ’Bloom Bloom‘, and Hyunjae, Kevin, and Sunwoo’s ’Shanghai Romance (上海之戀)‘ without a break, reaching the peak of the excitement.

The Boyz, who performed ’Last Kiss‘ and ’White‘ for the last section, said to the fans who responded with loud cheers and applause throughout the concert, “We want to show our 120% when you call our names and cheer us on so loudly. Please remember that The Boyz is your fans just as you were our fans!”, expressing their gratitude.

On the third day, member Sangyeon, who is about to enlist in the military, shared a letter he wrote himself, saying, “I was so happy throughout the concert that I wished the song would never end,”, with reddened eyes and deep emotion. He also said, “Thank you for filling the concert hall with your affectionate eyes for three days. We will return with a better image!”, and continued the warm atmosphere by promising to meet again next time. The Boyz ended the concert with ’Shout it out‘, completing another precious memory.

The Boyz received a lot of love at the previously held Seoul Fan Con, where they garnered attention on SNS with their splendid stage setup and meticulous composition, including the VCR. In Japan, the original two-day schedule was expanded by adding one day, and all three times were successfully concluded, proving once again the title of ‘Concert Hotspot’.

Not only that, The Boyz spared no effort in communicating in Japanese throughout the Japanese concert, and the fans responded with loud cheers in Korean, showing a warm response. The moments when they broke down the communication barrier by conveying their feelings in each other‘s language made this concert even more special, wrapping up a meaningful three-day event.

The Boyz has confirmed the release of their third full-length album ‘Unexpected’ on March 17, and will continue their comeback fever by revealing various teaser content.
