They held a concert in October 2015 – right after their debut – at Olympic Gymnastics Arena in Seoul, where large-scale performances are frequently held in Korea. And on Jan. 30th and 31st, they held another concert at the same place and met with their fans.

They had concerts in Daegu on Feb. 27th and in Busan on March 5th. And “iKONCERT 2016 SHOWTIME TOUR IN JAPAN” attracted 146,000 fans in total from 5 cities in Japan. Their first tour in Japan, which was over on Mar. 15th, was very successful and served as an opportunity to demonstrate their popularity there.
