Published Categorized as Collaborations, Concerts, Groups

Rising K-pop boy group EPEX wrapped up their Macau concert on May 3, marking another powerful stop on their solo tour ‘Youth Deficiency’.

Held at G Box at Galaxy Macau™, the group performed two shows in one day, just nine months after their last visit during the ‘Youth Days’ fan concert tour.

The setlist included tracks from their latest releases, ‘Youth to Youth’ and ‘Universe,’ presenting a tightly woven storyline that emotionally resonated with fans.

From high-energy numbers like “Full Metal Jacket” to tender ballads such as “Goodbye, My First Love,” the group showcased their growing artistry and stage presence.

Highlights from the concert included:

  • New stage arrangements and reworked versions of familiar songs.
  • A balance between powerful choreography and emotive vocal performances.
  • An enthusiastic response from fans, emphasizing the group’s increasing popularity in Greater China.

The Macau concert follows earlier tour stops in Seoul (December 2024) and Tokyo (March 2025).

The tour will continue to Taipei on May 24 and Fuzhou on May 31—the latter representing a landmark moment as EPEX becomes the first fully Korean K-pop group to perform in China since the easing of the Korean Wave ban.

To top it off, EPEX is expanding their global reach with a collaboration single titled “So Nice?” with American retro synth-pop duo Joan, set for release on May 6.
