[K-enter] j-hope surprises fans with encore concert on BTS anniversary

So, let’s start off with some exciting news for BTS fans, especially fans of a specific member.

BTS j-hope is preparing a special gift for ARMYs on a very meaningful day. BIGHIT MUSIC, j-hope’s agency, announced on Wednesday that j-hope will hold his encore concert, “j-hope Tour: HOPE ON THE STAGE – FINAL,” on June 13th and 14th at the Goyang Sports Complex Main Stadium.

This encore concert will serve as the grand finale of j-hope’s solo world tour, which began in February at KSPO Dome in Seoul. The tour has since spanned over 15 cities and 31 performances across the globe, including Chicago, Mexico City, Jakarta, Bangkok, and Osaka.

What makes this finale concert even more special is that the first of the two shows will be held on June 13th, which is the anniversary of BTS’s debut.

Ticket sales will begin on May 12th for fan club pre-sales and 13th for general sales. And if you don’t get your hands on one of the tickets, not to worry. The concert will be streamed live through an online platform.

It definitely will be a gift for ARMYs on such a special day. Our next story is a comeback story. Who are we talking about?

DAY6 are back with a fresh burst of spring energy. On Wednesday, the band released their new digital single “Maybe Tomorrow.” This marks DAY6’s first new release since their 9th mini album “Band Aid,” released back in September last year.

“Maybe Tomorrow” blends vibrant drum beats, refreshing instrumentals, and emotionally charged vocals.

The members were very active in making the new single. Young K wrote the lyrics, delivering hopeful messages, while Young K and Wonpil took part in the composition.

Meanwhile, DAY6 are set to hold the grand finale of their third world tour titled, “DAY6 3RD WORLD TOUR FINALE in SEOUL,” from May 9th to 11th and again from May 16th to 18th at KSPO DOME in Seoul.

DAY6 songs always lift me up. And the next boy group does too. The name of the band already says it: RIIZE.

There’s a chance for K-pop fans in the States to meet them?

RIIZE will become the first K-pop act to perform at the Austin City Limits Music Festival in the United States. The festival will be held over six days from October 3rd to 5th and from the 10th to 12th at Zilker Park in Austin, Texas. RIIZE will perform during the first weekend.

The ACL Music Festival began in 2002 and attracts up to 450-thousand attendees every year. Along with RIIZE, this year’s lineup includes singer Sabrina Carpenter, rapper Doja Cat, and rock band The Strokes.

It’s not the first time that RIIZE are dominating the global stage. Last year, they were the first K-pop artist to perform at Tecate Emblema, Mexico’s biggest pop festival.

Meanwhile, RIIZE are currently gearing up for their first full-length album “Odyssey” set to be released on May 19th.

Excited to see them shine on another global stage. Thank you Bella for today’s stories.
