BTS member Jin has successfully wrapped up the North American leg of his solo tour, leaving a trail of sold-out shows and rave reviews. The tour, which kicked off on July 17 in Anaheim, California, captivated over 90,000 fans across four cities—Anaheim, Dallas, Tampa, and Newark—with eight electrifying performances.
Jin's solo concerts, titled the "#RUNSEOKJIN_EP.TOUR," were a masterclass in engaging with his dedicated fanbase, known as ARMY. Unlike a traditional concert, the shows were designed as an interactive experience, blending live musical performances with elements of a variety show. Jin played games, had costume changes, and even conducted audience sing-alongs, creating an intimate atmosphere that resonated deeply with attendees. This unique format earned him high praise from critics, with the Los Angeles Times calling his Anaheim performance a "master class in fan communication" and a "special love letter" to his fans.
The tour's commercial success further cemented Jin's status as a formidable solo artist. He set a new record for the highest attendance for a Korean artist at Anaheim's Honda Center. His back-to-back shows at the American Airlines Center in Dallas were also a first for a Korean solo artist to achieve a complete sell-out. This success is a continuation of the momentum from his solo albums, 'Happy' and 'Echo,' which have seen chart success on the Billboard 200 and other major charts, further proving the independent strength and appeal of BTS members as solo acts.
With the North American leg behind him, Jin is now set to conquer Europe, with shows scheduled for August 5th and 6th at London's prestigious O2 Arena. This will mark another milestone for the artist, as he will be the first Korean solo singer to headline the iconic venue. The tour then continues to Amsterdam for the final shows. The overwhelming response to his solo tour highlights not only the enduring popularity of BTS but also the profound connection Jin has cultivated with his global audience through his unique blend of music, humor, and heartfelt interactions.
