Their nationwide arena tour attracted over 250,000 audiences. Yunho expressed his gratitude with, “We’ve been wanting to have our own concerts since we restarted activities. We would like to express our gratitude to all the fans who have waited for us during the time when we were not able to have activities.”
Red penlights filled and shone in the venue. When the duo appeared dressed in white, the fans who had been waiting for the tour for 3 years applauded and cheered to welcome them. Yunho greeted the audience with, “We will show you everything that we have prepared for today,” while Changmin said, “Everyone, let’s sing and dance till the end.” They opened the concert with up-tempo dance numbers such as “B.U.T” and “Superstar”.

During the MC segment, Changmin asked, “We gave it our all to bring good songs and performances to you, did the message get across?” to which 32,000 fans cheered in response.
During the encore, they showcased their new single “Still”, which clinched 1st on the Oricon single weekly charts for the week of 26 March as soon as it appeared on the charts.
