ILLIT has once again proven their ticket power by selling out their fan concert.
On September 25, the group opened fan-club pre-sales for their fan-concert encore, Glitter Day Encore. Both scheduled shows sold out immediately, following the same explosive demand seen at their previous events.
Consistent Sell-Out Power
ILLIT already showed unstoppable momentum earlier this year. Their June fan-concert Glitter Day in Seoul sold out during pre-sales alone, with no tickets left for general release. In August and September, their four shows in Kanagawa and Osaka were also sold out, prompting organizers to open additional restricted-view and standing seats due to overwhelming demand from Japanese fans.
Encore in Seoul This November
The upcoming encore concerts will be held on November 8–9 at Olympic Hall in Olympic Park, Seoul. The group has prepared special stages and interactive segments designed for their fandom, "GLIT."
Building Hype Before Comeback
ILLIT is also gearing up for a comeback in November, marking their return after about five months. Their third mini-album Bomb, released in June, placed them on the U.S. Billboard main chart for a third consecutive time. The title track Do the Dance remains strong on major Korean streaming charts.
Earlier this month, they released their first Japanese single Toki yo Tomare (Stop the Time), which debuted at No. 2 on the Oricon Weekly Singles Chart and Billboard Japan Top Single Sales.
Would you like me to expand this with a brief cultural note explaining why fan-concerts (팬콘) are such a central part of K-pop fandom culture for international readers?
