'MZ wannabe icon'IV (IVE: Ahn Yu-jin, Autumn, Ray, Jang Won-young, Liz, and Lee Seo) wrapped up their first world tour successfully after performing at Tokyo Dome.
On the 4th and 5th, Ive held the first world tour 'VE THE 1ST WORLD TOUR 'SHOW WHAT I HAVE' at Tokyo Dome, Japan, and successfully entered Tokyo Dome with enthusiastic response from local fans, attracting a total of 95,800 spectators. The Tokyo Dome Encore Con was the last performance to end the first world tour of IVE, which has been held since October last year.
At the Tokyo Dome encore concert, Ive formed a colorful set list that transcends vitality and lusciousness, including an unreleased surprise stage in collaboration with world-renowned DJ David Guetta, and painted Tokyo Dome with joy and emotion with an energetic stage along with a band session.
Ive, who appeared with the sound of the band, opened the performance with 'I AM'. IVE, who made the local audience excited with its spectacular appearance, drew chants at Tokyo Dome with a medley of hits such as 'ELEVEN', 'LOVE DIVE', 'After LIKE', 'Kitsch', 'Haya (HEYA)', and 'Accendio'.
Ive not only added heat with 'ROYAL', 'Blue Blood', 'Blue Heart', 'Holy Moly' and even showed off the members' unit performances, which excited the audience. In particular, he sang around the venue using a mobile car for the wide stage of the Tokyo Dome and close breathing with the audience.
Japanese songs were also sung for local audiences, heating up the atmosphere on the spot. In addition to "WILL", the title song of the new mini album "ALIVE" released in Japan last month was shown for the first time in front of fans. Ray set the stage with the city-pop masterpiece '接吻(Seppun, kiss)', which has long been loved in Japan, and received an explosive response from the audience.
Ive, who successfully completed his first world tour after performing at Tokyo Dome, expressed his feelings through his agency Starship Entertainment. Ray said "It didn't feel real until the Tokyo Dome performance was confirmed and rehearsals were held. I will never forget the moment I sang the last song after my first performance. "It is thanks to Dive (the name of the IVE fan club) that I can finish my first world tour at an iconic place. We wanted to give energy and give Dive a wonderful memory, but rather, we received energy and left happy memories that we will never forget. Thank you so much that I can't express all my feelings with words of love."
Leader Ahn Yu-jin "I've lived in sweet dreams for the past 11 months. Every performance was overwhelming and happy. I am so grateful to Dive to finish this journey on the dream stage of Tokyo Dome after the nervous times ahead of the first performance. I am also grateful to the staff who worked hard with me in an invisible place. "I will be more extraordinary, remembering the first world tour that I will never forget in my life."
Ive, who decorated his first world tour finale at Tokyo Dome 'The Dream Stage of Singers', generously showed his infinite growth and skills as a talented artist. In particular, this performance proved its local popularity by selling 95,000 seats upon the opening of the ticket.
Starting with a solo concert held at Jamsil Indoor Gymnasium in Seoul in October, they conducted the 37th world tour of 28 cities in 19 countries, including Europe, Asia, North America, and South America. After running for about 11 months, Ive grew through performances and expanded his global influence with favorable reviews of his skills. In particular, in the case of live performances, it received favorable reviews that it became much more stable and perfect than at the beginning of its debut. It made me look forward to the future even more.
