BOYNEXTDOOR has successfully completed their first Japan tour.
BOYNEXTDOOR (Sungho, Liu, Myung Jaehyun, Taesan, Lee Han, Unhak) successfully completed their first solo tour ‘BOYNEXTDOOR TOUR ‘KNOCK ON Vol. 1’ in Kanagawa on the 24th.
The six members held 12 concerts in 6 cities in Japan, starting with Tokyo, Aichi, Osaka, Miyagi, Fukuoka, and now Kanagawa. Their Japan tour garnered early attention as all 12 concerts were sold out as soon as ticket sales began. In particular, broadcasting stations from Aichi, Osaka, and Fukuoka visited the concert hall in person to interview Boynextdoor and highlight their popularity, drawing a lot of attention.
Boynextdoor opened the Kanagawa concert with ‘Earth, Wind & Fire (Japanese Ver.)’ and livened up the atmosphere by performing popular songs such as ‘I‘ll Turn Around’, ‘Nice Guy’, and ‘Serenade’ live. They followed up with the Japanese original ‘GOOD DAY’ and the Japanese versions of ‘Only Today I LOVE YOU’, ‘What’s It Like’, and ‘One and Only’. The audience responded enthusiastically by chanting the official cheer in Korean every time the title songs from their previous albums rang out. When the members said in Japanese, “It‘s great to see you enjoying yourself”, “I hope Boy Next Door’s songs will be played as BGM for youth”, and “Let‘s be together for 400 years”, the audience erupted in cheers.
Boy Next Door expressed their determination, saying, “When we first debuted, we couldn’t even imagine performing in Japan. Since we only have one original Japanese song, we will prepare hard and come back with a new album.”
The six members moved the audience with their heartfelt sincerity at the end of the concert. They said, “Thanks to all the love you sent us, we were able to perform with a refreshed heart. Thank you for joining us for our first tour,” he said, adding, “Whenever I see ONEDOOR (fandom name) on stage, I think that the future will be even more fun. I want to have fun with them at the next concert like this. I will become a singer who can put on an unforgettable performance. And I will treasure this unforgettable moment in my heart,” expressing his gratitude to his fans.
Meanwhile, BOYNEXTDOOR will meet ONEDOOR through the ‘BOYNEXTDOOR TOUR ‘KNOCK ON Vol. 1’’ in Singapore on March 15, Manila on the 22nd, Bangkok on the 29th, Taipei on April 3, Hong Kong on the 6th, and Jakarta on the 12th across Asia.
