PLAVE to Open First World Tour 'KEEP IT MANIC' in Incheon

'KEEP IT MANIC' opens with a two-night Incheon stadium run because of course it does.

the PLAVE-to-stadium pipeline was NOT on my 2026 bingo card and yet here we are, thriving.

per allkpop, virtual idol group PLAVE are launching their first world tour, 'KEEP IT MANIC,' opening with a two-night stadium debut in Incheon before taking it worldwide. a STADIUM. for their FIRST tour.

whatever you think you know about virtual idols, PLAVE keep detonating the ceiling — the performances, the fan connection, the sheer scale. Plli have built something genuinely unprecedented and the industry is finally catching up.

first world tour, stadium-sized, zero notes. keep it manic indeed. 🌀

TXT to Launch Fifth World Tour 'STEAL THE WIND' in November

big hit confirmed the tour on august 27 — it kicks off with three nights in seoul this november. new era, new naming, same chokehold.

MOA start your saving accounts because TOMORROW X TOGETHER are going back ON tour.

on august 27, Big Hit Music announced TXT's fifth world tour, "STEAL THE WIND," and the boys are once again about to take over cities worldwide. the tour officially kicks off with a three-night Seoul run from November 13–15, 2026.

the giveaway that this is a whole new chapter? they dropped the "ACT" naming convention they'd used for past tours. "STEAL THE WIND" also nods to their eighth EP, "7TH YEAR: A Moment of Stillness in the Thorns," which leans on "wind" in its korean title. the lore is LORE-ing.

from seoul to (per the announcement) chicago and beyond, the girlies who travel for the show are eating well. see you in a city near you, probably crying. 🌪️

exo's velvet-voiced menace is dropping his fourth solo mini on september 8 and the teaser rollout starts this week

bestie sit down. doh kyung soo — d.o. to the streets, serotonin to the girlies — is officially coming back and he named the album 'DOPAMINE' like he KNOWS exactly what he does to our nervous systems.

the facts: it's his fourth solo mini album and it lands september 8 at 6pm KST, with the teaser rollout kicking off basically now. clear the camera roll for incoming visuals.

this is his first proper solo moment in about a year — the last thing he blessed us with was the digital single 'DUMB' — so the man is fully rested, fully marinated, and about to remind everyone the vocals were never a rumor.

september 8. write it down. we're going to be so normal about this (we are not).
