"ONEW THE LIVE" is a branded show that puts Onew's trusted live performances at the forefront. With enthusiastic support from global fans, Onew has so far set Seoul, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Tokyo and Kaohsiung alight in sequence. Onew will continue the world tour across 21 cities worldwide, passing through São Paulo, Santiago, Mexico City, Paris, London, Madrid, Helsinki, Copenhagen, Tilburg, Warsaw and Berlin in South America and Europe before reaching North America.
