(UPDATE) #iKONCERT: Rookie K-Pop Idol Boy Group To Hold First Concert In Malaysia This August

This August, YG Entertainment’s rookie K-Pop idol boy group iKON will be performing in Malaysia! The boys will be coming here for the first time ever as part of their iKONCERT 2016 Showtime Tour in Asia.

This is not the first time that iKON has hit the stage for a large-scale concert. In October last year, they held their debut “Showtime” performance at the Seoul Olympic Gymnastics Arena, which was a sold-out show.

iKONCERT Showtime

iKON (아이콘) was first introduced in the reality survival program called “Who is Next: WIN” as “Team B”. Team B and their adversaries Team A known as “WINNER” now were both formed from trainees within YG Entertainment.

The teams are friends but they competed against each other in order to debut as the first YG boy K-Pop group in 8 years, after BIGBANG. Team B eventually lost to Team A and continued as trainees, before letting the 2014 “Mix & Match” survival program decide their fate.

iKON Welcome Back

Fast forward to sometime in October 2014, it was revealed that iKON’s debut was slated for January 2015. Unfortunately, the plan fell through as the group had to make way for their sunbaes’ (read: senior YG group BIGBANG) long-awaited “MADE” series comeback first. At that time, an insider revealed that iKON had already “made over 50 songs in preparation for their official debut”.

As promised, as soon as BIGBANG wrapped up their “MADE” series promotions, YG Entertainment CEO Yang Hyun Suk quickly released an iKON debut teaser. This was followed by the release of iKON’s double title tracks, “Rhythm Ta” (리듬 타) and “Airplane“, off the first half of their debut album, “Welcome Back“.

YouTube video

The group’s 7 members – B.I, Bobby, Kim Jinhwan, Koo Junhoe, Song Yunhyeong, Kim Donghyuk, and Jung Chanwoo – made their official Korean debut on the 15th of September 2015 through the digital release of their first single “My Type” from their first studio album Welcome Back and made their first debut broadcast on 4th October 2015 on SBS’s Inkigayo.

As of March 2016, the group has sold over 210,000+ physical albums and more than 3.6 million of digital records.

iKONCERT Kuala Lumpur Malaysia

Now ready to embark on their first ever Asia tour, iKON will be hitting up countries like China, Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, and Malaysia.
