JYJ’s XIA Kim Junsu received more than 150,000 ticket applications for his Nagoya and Yokohama concerts in Japan.
CJES Entertainment stated, “Interest from
Japanese fans to XIA Junsu’s six concerts in two cities is hot. For the
Nagoya concerts scheduled for October 8th to 10th, there are a total of
24,000 seats but we received 50,000 applications. For the Yokohama
Arena concerts scheduled for October 14th to 16th, there are a total of
33,000 seats but we received more than 100,000 ticket applications. For
57,000 seats, we received over 150,000 applications.”
In July, XIA Junsu’s second album
received praises for being a ‘complex album’ and achieved extraordinary
results. When the title song ‘Incredible’ was released, the song reached
#1 on the iTunes Dance and Album charts in 8 countries, including
Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore. It was also #1 on Japan’s Tower Records
chart, and was #1 on China’s largest music video site Yinyuetai’s weekly
chart, receiving much love domestically and internationally.
A
representative said, “Anticipation for XIA Junsu’s high standard music
and performances and the fact that he will meet fans not in Tokyo but in
Nagoya and Yokohama have received high interest from Japanese fans. The
lottery for tickets hasn’t happened yet*, but with absolutely no
Japanese activities, we received over 150,000 ticket applications in
just one week after applications opened. That is astonishing. As there
is still time until fans receive their tickets, we anticipate that more
fans will be pressed (to look for tickets).”
On the other hand, JYJ’s XIA Junsu began
his Asia tour along with the release of his second album. Starting on
July 20th in Bangkok, he held successful concerts in Shanghai, Seoul and
Busan. After his concert on September 28th in Australia, he will
continue with his Japan tour.
