SHINee's TAEMIN's Kanagawa concert concludes successfully... Japan arena tour starts smoothly after 5 years

SHINee member and solo artist Taemin successfully concluded the Kanagawa performance, the first stop on his '2025 TAEMIN ARENA TOUR ‘Veil’', signaling a smooth start to the tour.

Taemin thrilled local fans with impactful stages at Kanagawa Pia Arena MM from September 13th to 15th.

While Taemin performed in Japan last year as part of his 'Ephemeral Gaze' world tour, this marks his first solo arena tour in Japan since 2019—five years ago—making it all the more meaningful.

Taemin opened the show with 'Heaven', delivering an extraordinary performance suspended from a cross-shaped structure that overwhelmed the audience from the very start.

The stage for 'Veil', the title track of his special digital single released on the 13th, was unveiled for the first time. Taemin's intense performance and aura perfectly embodied the narrative embedded in the new song on stage.

Taemin also performed hit songs like 'Bones', 'Advice+IDEA', 'Sexy In The Air', 'Criminal', and 'Guilty' one after another, heating up the concert venue.

The ending featured diverse songs like 'Tease', 'Famous', and 'Mars', leading into an encore stage amid fans' cheers.

During the encore, Taemin responded to fan requests, improvising a live band performance of a Japanese release track for a special interaction. He then closed the concert with a live rendition of 'Finale', a track from 'Veil'.

Taemin will continue his tour in Saga on September 20th-21st, Shizuoka on October 4th-5th, Chiba on November 29th-30th, and Hyogo on December 24th-25th.
