The final performance of SEVENTEEN's S.COUPS and Mingyu's special unit CxM's first live tour "CxM [DOUBLE UP] LIVE PARTY in JAPAN" was held on February 5 and 6 at Makuhari Messe International Exhibition Hall, closing successfully. This performance was part of a tour that started in January in Incheon, South Korea, and visited five cities in Asia, with four performances in Japan across Aichi and Chiba, thrilling approximately 74,000 CARAT (fan name). On February 5 and 6, CARAT gathered from all over the world to enjoy the CxM performance at the venue. The show began with characters Kuute and Mante from CxM's 1st mini-album "HYPE VIBES" appearing as if they came from outer space, followed by CxM's entrance, which elicited screams of joy from the audience. They performed "Fiesta," an unreleased song "Feel," and the HIPHOP TEAM's song "Back it up." The MC started with a greeting, "Hello everyone in Makuhari! Good evening, we are CxM!" This time, the stage was set in the center, surrounded by the audience, and when they asked, "Can you see well?" a strong response came from the crowd. They expressed their happiness at being able to meet so many CARAT closely in such a large venue. After the MC, they performed CxM's song "Worth it" and the HIPHOP TEAM's song "LALALI." Next was Mingyu's solo stage, where he showcased "Like the Beginning," created about seven years ago, and an unreleased song "Sunrise (MINGYU Solo)" that he made during a solo trip in 2025, demonstrating his impressive vocal skills. After that, S.COUPS returned to the stage to perform HIPHOP TEAM's songs "IF I" and "TRAUMA," captivating the audience. Then came S.COUPS's solo stage, where he used a rose-decorated microphone stand of his own design to perform "Me," enchanting the crowd. Following this, he passionately performed an unreleased song "TOO YOUNG TO DIE (S.COUPS Solo)" expressing his current self. While maintaining the heated atmosphere, Mingyu returned to perform the title track "5, 4, 3 (Pretty woman)" and "For you" from CxM's 1st mini-album "HYPE VIBES." He then performed his solo song "Shake It Off (MINGYU Solo)," reminiscent of the recently concluded "SEVENTEEN WORLD TOUR [NEW_] IN JAPAN." After Mingyu's stage, S.COUPS appeared seated on a throne-like chair to perform his solo song "Jungle (S.COUPS Solo)." They then passionately performed HIPHOP TEAM's songs "Fire" and "Water," raising the venue's energy to its peak. The main part of the show concluded with CxM's song "Earth." Amidst the echoing calls for an encore from CARAT, the encore stage began with the HIPHOP TEAM's song "Monster." During the encore MC, they declared, "Thank you, everyone. We want to create many fun memories not just as SEVENTEEN but also as CxM! We will be together for 10, 20, 30 years! The 13 of us will not part! Thank you for your continued support!" They then performed HIPHOP TEAM's songs "GAM3 BO1" and "Check-In." Finally, they sang CxM's songs "Young again" and "Earth," concluding the successful "CxM [DOUBLE UP] LIVE PARTY in JAPAN." After successfully finishing the tour, they are scheduled to perform in Busan, South Korea on February 13 and 14. SEVENTEEN's momentum, which goes beyond group activities, continues to be noteworthy.
