On the 10th anniversary of her solo debut, Girls' Generation's Taeyeon successfully concluded her sixth solo concert.
Held from 7th to 9th at the KSPO DOME in Olympic Park, Seoul, the 'TAEYEON CONCERT – The TENSE' featured a setlist that encompassed Taeyeon's solo activity history and thematic productions focusing on "me," providing an immersive experience for the audience. It was a performance that fully captured Taeyeon's growth and musical color over her 10 years as a solo artist.
This concert was a new show held approximately 1 year and 7 months after 'The ODD Of LOVE', with all tickets sold out during pre-sale, and additional obstructed view seats also quickly selling out, proving Taeyeon's enduring ticket power. Notably, the concert on the final day, 9th, was live-streamed globally through the Beyond LIVE platform and Weverse, attracting significant attention from fans around the world.
The concert on the final day coincided with Taeyeon's birthday, adding a special significance to the event. Taeyeon noted, "I want to be celebrated more, but I usually like to spend my birthdays quietly, so I think this birthday will truly be unforgettable." On that day, celebrities from tvN's 'Amazing Saturday' such as Hanhae and Pio, Ive's Liz, Mamamoo's Moonbyul, GOT7's Bambam, and broadcasters Jaejae and Seunghwan also came to show their strong support.
Taeyeon expressed her gratitude to the fans who traveled from around the world, stating, "Thank you so much for coming from afar. I think it will be a more meaningful time since it is a 10th anniversary performance. Please enjoy it until the end."
During the performance, numerous hit songs were presented in a variety of performances and band sessions, including Taeyeon's solo debut track 'I', 'Why', 'Four Seasons', 'Weekend', 'INVU', 'To. X', 'Time Lapse', 'U R', and more. Each moment drew enthusiastic cheers from the audience with explosive vocal power and emotional stage presence.
Fans enthusiastically enjoyed the performance, waving glow sticks and singing along, and prior to the encore stage, a slogan event featuring phrases such as '10 years still a very special day', 'Taeyeon, our 10 years were you', and 'Kim Taeyeon, you did well' was held. This was followed by a chorus of 'Happy Birthday' and 'Your Birthday' to give Taeyeon a special moment, adding to the emotion.
Starting with this Seoul concert, Taeyeon is scheduled to visit a total of 9 locations in Asia, including Taipei on March 16, Manila on 29th, Jakarta on April 12, Tokyo on 19th-20th, Macau on 26th, Singapore on May 3rd-4th, Bangkok on May 31st-June 1st, and Hong Kong on June 7th, creating more memories with local fans.
