Kang Daniel to Begin Asia Tour in Tokyo and Osaka in January, Marking a "Restart"


Kang Daniel is set to kick off the new year with an Asia tour. He will meet fans in Japan with the 2025 KANGDANIEL CONCERT [ACT] IN TOKYO & OSAKA, starting with shows in Tokyo on January 4-5, followed by Osaka on January 7. This will be his first solo concert in Japan in three years, since his Japan tour in October 2022. 


Kang Daniel recently launched a new Japanese account on X (formerly Twitter), hinting at the start of more extensive activities. His concerts will expand beyond Seoul, Tokyo, and Osaka to include more stops across Asia. As this is his second tour after a year-long world tour spanning 20 cities in Asia, Europe, and North America, fans are even more excited. The cities included in this Asia tour will be announced sequentially on the official platform, BeStage.


ARA, Kang Daniel's agency, stated, “Breaking his long hiatus with a new album and domestic concerts, Kang Daniel is embarking on full-fledged international activities, starting with Japan. He’s preparing a more evolved stage to create meaningful connections with global fans.”


In addition to the tour, Kang Daniel recently attended the ELLE STYLE AWARDS (ESA), ASIA in Macau, the first-ever ESA held in Asia, where he was honored with an award. Hosted by global fashion media outlet ELLE, ESA ASIA celebrated individuals in fashion, art, and entertainment, with Kang Daniel receiving The Electric Icon award.
