South Korean boy band BOYNEXTDOOR has added a second concert date in Taipei due to overwhelming demand, with organizers announcing an extra show on January 10, 2027. The band's "KNOCK ON Vol.2" tour stop in Taipei, scheduled for January 9 at the Linkou Gymnasium, sold out instantly, with 40,000 fans attempting to purchase tickets.
The group, which debuted in 2023, has rapidly risen to fame. Their "KNOCK ON Vol.2" tour kicked off in Seoul from July 17-19, drawing over 30,000 fans to the KSPO DOME over three days. The Seoul concerts featured live band performances, large LED stage effects, and the debut of new songs, creating a fervent atmosphere.
A particularly meaningful song on the setlist was "06070," named after the postal code of their company's former building. The song recounts their journey from anxious trainees to successful debut artists, adding a layer of emotional depth to the tour. This sentiment carried over to the Taipei leg, where tickets for the initial January 9 concert sold out immediately upon release on July 26.
In response to the fervent support from their fans, known as ONEDOOR, the additional concert was announced on August 5. Tickets for the January 10 show will go on sale on August 9. BOYNEXTDOOR expressed their excitement about spending an extra day with their fans in Taipei, anticipating the energy the audience will bring. They conveyed their happiness at being able to perform for their fans for an additional day and promised an unforgettable experience filled with jumping, singing, and laughter.
