BOYNEXTDOOR Kicks Off First World Tour with 35 Shows Across 24 Cities

K-pop boy group BOYNEXTDOOR is opening its first world tour this week. The six-member group kicks off "BOYNEXTDOOR TOUR 'KNOCK ON Vol.2' IN SEOUL" on July 17 at KSPO DOME in Songpa district, Seoul, with shows running through Sunday.

The Seoul dates mark the official start of the group's first world tour. The setlist will draw from music released after their final concert last July, including tracks from their fifth EP "The Action" and their first full-length album "HOME."

Members Sungho, Riwoo, Jaehyun, Taesan, Leehan, and Woonhak shared their thoughts through their agency, KOZ Entertainment. "We're curious and excited to see how ONEDOOR, our fandom, will receive this new tour," they said. "People always say the first step matters most, so we want to make this opening bold and leave no regrets."

They added, "We learned a lot from the last tour, so we're looking forward to seeing how we've grown. We've prepared a lot, and we want to give the audience a powerful memory. Please look forward to a show with a real arc from start to finish."

After Seoul and Busan, the tour heads to six cities in Japan: Kanagawa, Saga, Osaka, Miyagi, Nagano, and Chiba. From there, the group will visit Dallas, Pompano Beach, Chicago, New York, Toronto, and Vancouver in North America, along with Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Taipei, and Hong Kong across Asia. In total, the tour covers 24 cities and 35 shows.

For a group that debuted in 2023, a world tour of this size signals a fast climb into the ranks of K-pop acts capable of filling arenas on multiple continents.
