Japan’s Top 6 Sports Newspapers Publish Reports on iKON’s Rapid Rise to Success

[텐아시아=손예지 기자] Japan’s major sports newspapers published articles on iKON’s first ever Japan dome tour. 

On May 21, the Chunichi Sports, the Sports Hochi, the Daily Sports, the Sports Nippon, the Nikkan Sports, and Sankei Sports covered iKON’s dome tour, which is titled “iKON JAPAN DOME TOUR 2017”.  

On May 20, iKON kicked off their first dome tour with a concert at the Osaka Kyocera Dome. Last year, iKON went on an arena tour, which attracted a total of 322,000 people. It was the biggest number of audience for a rookie that debuted less than a year ago. iKON also set a new record of taking the shortest time for a foreign act to hold a dome tour.  

iKON has a lot of experience in performing in Japan, and now they are going viral by doing a dome tour although they only debuted about a year ago. This shows the group’s huge popularity in Japan. 

iKON successfully held their Osaka Kyocera Dome concert, and their second concert will take place on June 17 at the Saitama Metlife Dome.
