EXO's Chen successfully finished his first solo fan concert 'Beyond the DOOR in Seoul.' The fan concert, held at Dongduk Women's University 100th Anniversary Hall from September 21 to 22, began with the title track 'Empty' and the song 'Dandelion' from his 4th mini-album released in May. With his emotional vocals, he delivered a deep singing voice to the fans who attended the concert, saying, 'I might have wanted this moment more than you all. The songs carry words I truly want to convey to you. I chose these two songs to start because I wanted to express those words.' After that, he showcased all the tracks from his 4th mini-album, including 'Remember,' 'PLAYLIST,' 'Fall In Love Again,' and 'Starlight,' as well as past hits like 'I Don't Even Mind,' 'Hold you tight,' 'Beautiful goodbye,' and 'Shall we?' He also delivered an emotional live stage with popular drama OSTs like 'Don't Remember,' 'Everytime,' and 'Best Luck,' providing a special time. He introduced a new song 'Love you,' leaving a deep impression, stating, 'There was no place to directly express to the fans that I love you, so I wanted to let you hear it first.' He also surprised fans by revealing a part of another new song, raising expectations. Not only did he provide an emotional live stage, but he also wore various items through a 'guess the song title game,' bringing laughter. Through videos filled with feelings he couldn't convey to fans until now, he interacted closely with them. Spending meaningful time with fans for about two hours, he expressed his thoughts on the first solo fan concert, saying, 'I think this time spent together in our own world is very happy. I will strive to make you feel approachable.' After successfully finishing the fan concert 'Beyond the DOOR in Seoul,' he plans to continue his Asia tour starting in Taipei, Taiwan on October 25, followed by Bangkok, Thailand on November 2, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on the 8th, and Manila, Philippines on the 23rd.
