After a six-year hiatus, K-pop group WINNER is set to make a grand comeback to Japan with their highly awaited “2025 WINNER CONCERT [IN OUR CIRCLE] IN JAPAN.”

This marks their first in-person Japanese tour since 2019, exciting fans who have eagerly awaited their return.

YG Entertainment revealed the tour will begin with two shows on September 28 at the Kobe International House International Hall in Hyogo, followed by a final concert on September 30 at Tachikawa Stage Garden in Tokyo, totaling three concerts.

This upcoming tour promises to showcase WINNER’s signature musical style and stage presence, building on the high standard set during their 2019 tour, which featured a full live band and left a strong impression on Japanese audiences.

The agency expressed their gratitude toward fans for their unwavering support and patience, stating,

“We are preparing a top-tier stage that will fully satisfy that long-awaited reunion, so please look forward to it.”

This statement highlights the group’s commitment to delivering a memorable and powerful concert experience.

Before their Japan tour, WINNER will reconnect with their Korean fans during the “2025 WINNER CONCERT [IN OUR CIRCLE]” held from July 25 to 27 at the Olympic Hall in Olympic Park, Seoul.

Originally planned as two shows on July 26 and 27, both concerts sold out rapidly, prompting the addition of an extra show on July 25—a clear testament to their enduring popularity and the excitement surrounding their comeback.

Tickets for the additional Seoul performance went on presale for fan club members on June 2, with general sales opening on June 4, reflecting the high demand and anticipation for WINNER’s live events this year.

As WINNER prepares to hit the stage again, fans in both Korea and Japan can look forward to an electrifying blend of new performances and beloved hits, reaffirming WINNER’s place as one of K-pop’s most cherished acts.
