UPDATE:
Daesung was originally scheduled for only four dates in Kobe and Tokyo for his first ever solo concert, “D-Lite D’scover Tour”, starting 23rd March 2013. However, concert promoters must have grossly underestimated Daesung’s popularity (he is part of the K-Pop idol boy group BIGBANG, after all) because they ended up adding dates.
Not just a few dates like, two or three. They ended up adding an additional 21 concerts in 17 cities because of the high demand. Now Daesung will have 25 shows for his first ever solo tour! He’s set to visit cities such as:
- Nigita
- Aomori
- Hokkaido
- Miyagi
- Gigawa
- Okayama
- Hiroshima
- Nagasaki
- Saga
These are cities that even BIGBANG has never visited before.
Daesung, fighting!
