The concerts are part of VIXX’s project launched to celebrate its anniversary. It started with the May release of the EP “Shangri-La/Paradise on Earth,” whose concept features a quest for a fictional utopia.
VIXX has had intriguing onstage concepts that range from voodoo dolls to vampires.
As a special treat for Japanese fans, VIXX will perform Japanese versions of its hits in addition to songs from its official Japanese releases.
After Japan, VIXX will head to Southeast Asian countries for fan meetings, starting on July 27.
