BOYNEXTDOOR Performs at Historic New York Venue During North American Tour
BOYNEXTDOOR brought its first North American tour to an intimate Brooklyn stage on Nov. 8, headlining Billboard's "One Night Only" event at Music Hall of Williamsburg, a venue previously visited by artists including Harry Styles, Coldplay and Ed Sheeran.
The six-member group, consisting of Sungho, Riwoo, Jaehyun, Taesan, Leehan and Woonhak, took part in the special performance amid their ongoing tour, offering fans a more up-close concert experience.
Music Hall of Williamsburg is known for hosting established international artists in a relatively intimate setting. Ed Sheeran performed at the venue early in his career, while Harry Styles, Coldplay and Kendrick Lamar have also appeared there for special performances.
BOYNEXTDOOR opened the evening with the high-energy "ANIMAL," before moving into "VIRAL," a track incorporating elements associated with second- and third-generation K-pop, and the hip-hop-driven "Knock Knock Knock."
The group also performed "Earth, Wind & Fire" and "ADIOS!," drawing enthusiastic singalongs from the audience.
As the performance continued, the members took advantage of the venue's close proximity to the crowd, interacting directly with fans and responding to their energy throughout the set.
The enthusiastic reception prompted BOYNEXTDOOR to deliver spontaneous encore performances of both "ANIMAL" and "ADIOS!"
"Thank you for welcoming us," the members said. "Every city we've visited on our North American tour has its own charm. It was especially memorable to hear you singing along so loudly."
They added, "Just as we're making so many memories through these performances, we hope this moment stays with you for a long time."
The Brooklyn appearance comes as BOYNEXTDOOR continues the North American leg of its first world tour, "KNOCK ON Vol.2."
According to the group's agency, videos of audiences singing along to "Hollywood Action," "VIRAL" and "ANIMAL" at previous tour stops have attracted attention on social media.
BOYNEXTDOOR will continue the tour in Toronto on Nov. 10, Vancouver on Nov. 13, Seattle on Nov. 15, San Francisco on Nov. 17, Los Angeles on Nov. 20 and Mexico City on Nov. 24.
