We are grateful for the fun memories created,' and hinted, 'There are still many contents we can show you.' Even after finishing all the scheduled stages, they performed an encore stage of 'Guilty Pleasure' while going around the audience, wrapping the venue in excitement until the end. Their close eye contact with each audience member conveyed their immense love for fans. DK and Seungkwan released their 1st mini-album 'Serenade' on the 12th, gaining popularity with the title track 'Blue'.
