From his singing to his dancing, everything about XIA Junsu enchanted people in Germany.
In a total of 12 different cities, Junsu performed 13 times in front approximately 53,800 people for the world tour. The finale of the world tour took place at the Turbinenhalle in Oberhausen, Germany on the 30th of November. It is Junsu’s second time performing in Germany after JYJ’s performance in Berlin. It was the first time an Asian performer appeared at the location.
World-famous bands like Korn, Motor Head, Stone Sour and Caliban have performed at the Turbinenhalle prior to Junsu’s appearance.
The chilling cold was unnoticed by 1,800 fans who heated up the building. The fans showed up at the location hours before the start of the concert and danced along to Junsu’s music and compared their hand-made posters while waiting to enter.
When the concert finally began, all of the fans stood up from their seats and began to dance along. Junsu showed his gratitude for his fans by placing all of his energy into his performances.
During the concert, Junsu performed a total of 17 songs, 11 songs from his official first album and songs from musicals. The concert began with “Breath”, followed by “No Gain”, “Lullaby”, “Intoxication”, “Set Me Free” and more.
The English single Uncommitted was also a special gift. Another song included, “You are so Beautiful”, an OST from a drama as well as songs like, “Last Dance” from the musical “Elizabeth” and more.
For 2 hours, Junsu showed off everything he learned from touring the world on his own and left a lasting impression to the people in the audience. With his strong vocals and sexy dance moves, people just couldn’t get enough.
When his title song “Tarantallegra” began to play, the crowd went wild with outbursts of screams and danced along with him throughout the whole song.
There was a special moment in the middle of the concert where Junsu gave his fans three wishes. One 18-year-old fan from Turkey wished to dance on stage with Junsu. The young fan revealed that he had learned the moves to “Tarantallegra” by watching a video online and was unable to hide his excitement. Junsu was also very grateful for the fan who had learned all of his choreography.
Even after the concert had ended, fans continued to applaud and didn’t want to leave the building. Junsu even went down from the stage to bow to his fans to show his gratitude.
When he completed his concert, Junsu stated, “Thank you for the fans who came from all over the world to see my concert. You have shown me hope and allowed me to start another dream. I will cherish all the applause and tears I have received from 12 different cities and make sure to repay all of you.”
It was a moment that made everybody curious about how far Junsu will be able to go in the future.
Meanwhile, Junsu released his first official solo album Tarantallegra last May and began to travel to cities in places like Thailand, Taiwan, Indonesia, Shanghai, Hong Kong, New York, Mexico and more.

I also hope we can do more fan signing events in China
Chinese (fans) Thank you all
~Since they have such feelings towards the Chinese fans
Don’t know what are TVXQ’s favorite things in China
YH: I like Chinese food
I like China’s Sichuan food
I really like roasted duck
Sichuan Cuisine is really spicy
But slowly eating it, it’s easy to get addicted
We all like to eat Chengdu’s spicy
CM: For me, I like to eat hot pot, hot pot
Hot pot is really good
Other than hot pot I also like those small spicy chicken
It’s all so good
YH: We really want to go to Sichuan
If we go to Sichuan,w e could perform and eat good food
We can perform in China and perform in Korea
It would be good if we can perform in Chin and perform in Korea at the same time
CM: Because our meeting chance is really small
If I could go to China, I want to go to the Great Wall
When I was little, I saw the Great Wall in books and on TV
I feel like the Great Wall is really great
I really want to climb that Great Wall
