[TRANS] 130618 Tohoshinki, Concludes 5-dome Tour Successfully… “Myriad Of Emotions At The Tokyo Dome”

With their final concert at Tokyo Dome, group Tohoshinki’s 5-dome tour concluded as a huge success, the first for any Korean singer.

Tohoshinki began their 5-dome live tour “Tohoshinki LIVE TOUR 2013 ~TIME~” with the first show at the Saitama Super Arena on 27 April, then went on to tour Sapporo Dome, Nagoya Dome, Fukuoka Yahoo! Japan Dome, Kyocera Dome Osaka, and Tokyo Dome.

A total of 16 concerts were held in this tour, attracting an audience of over 700,000, proving their high popularity.

To wrap up the 5-dome tour, finale concerts were held over 3 days, from 15 to 17 June, at the Tokyo Dome. Tohoshinki sang a total of 28 songs over 3 hours, charming the audience with a concert that brought together their outstanding singing abilities, powerful performance, and diverse stage production effects.

In particular, the audience also prepared a special event during the last day of the concerts in Tokyo Dome on 17 June. When the performance for “In Our Time” began, the audience switched their red lightsticks, which represent Tohoshinki, to pastel blue ones instead. Among the blue lights, the title of the tour, “Time”, was displayed in red. The members are said to have been touched.

After the concert, Yunho expressed his thoughts, “Thanks to the many people who have supported us, we’ve been able to fulfill our dream of having a 5-dome tour. It still seems like a dream, and we will work even harder from now on with the mindset that this is just the beginning.”

Changmin said, “10 years ago, I did not think it would be possible for us to hold a 5-dome tour. But I’m really happy that this dream has come true, and I would like to share this important dream-like moment with our fans.”

Following their 5-dome tour, Tohoshinki will be holding their “LIVE TOUR 2013 ~TIME~ FINAL in NISSAN STADIUM” at the Nissan Stadium in Yokohama over 2 days, 17 and 18 August. This will be the finale of their Japan live tour. Through the tour this time, it is expected that a total of 850,000 audiences would have been attracted, and this is expected to set a record for highest number of audiences for any Korean singer.

Translation 120106 TVXQ Next Goal is a 5-Dome Tour and a World Tour…

[TRANS] 120106 Tohoshinki, Their Next Goal Is A 5-Dome Tour And A World Tour – Interview With Sanspo
Jan 8, 2012 Written by jugglingtheclouds

It seems like just yesterday when we conducted this interview at a recording office in Minami Aoyama, Tokyo. In between their schedules that are packed back-to-back, we (still) got to witness the duo’s hearty laughter.

The single “Why? (Keep Your Head Down)” released last January attained 1st place (on the Oricon charts), their new album “TONE” has sold more that 450,000 copies, a highest record so far for the unit. From an Excellence Award in the (Japan) Record Awards, to quickly making an appearance on the Kouhaku (Utagassen), it seems like nothing can stop them.

In order to thank the fans, performances at the Tokyo Dome on 14 and 15 April, 2 years since their last, and their first independent performances at the Kyocera Dome Osaka, on 21 and 22 April, have been decided upon. The tour, which will have 24 performances across 11 cities, and is expected to draw a crowd of apporximately 450,000. It will be the largest-scale (tour) the unit has had thus far.

Yunho: I think the Tokyo Dome performance will be a turning point which will allow us to mature. It’s a place with memories, so we’re happy to be able to stand on that stage again. If the opportunity arises we’d like to do a 5-dome tour. (T/N: The 5 major domes in Japan; Tokyo Dome, Kyocera Dome Osaka, Nagoya Dome, Fukuoka Dome and Sapporo Dome)

They also performed in “SM TOWN” in Europe and America, including Paris and New York, and (created) much excitement at the “homegrounds” of entertainment/pop culture.

Changmin: (Seeing fans who) remember our songs made me feel very happy. If the opportunity arises, I’d like to do an overseas tour as well.

Having been 7 years since their debut in Japan, their next goal is?

Yunho: I think it’s important to showcase ourselves not only as Yunho and Changmin of Tohoshinki, but also as actors “Jung Yunho” and “Shim Changmin”. I’d hope for us to show more of our other charms, and to become artists who can bring courage and hope to people. Since this is the year of the dragon, everyone, let’s strive forward and soar like the dragon together with Tohoshinki.

“From Asia to the World.” These humbly spoken words were overflowing with their unwavering confidence.
