As 2025 approaches, K-pop artists are setting their sights on global stages.

SHINee’s Taemin will continue the momentum of his first solo world tour, “Ephemeral Gaze,” which began on Dec. 15 with sold-out shows, into early next year.

According to his agency Big Planet Made Entertainment tickets for the US leg of the “Ephemeral Gaze” tour — covering New York, Chicago, Houston, Oakland and Los Angeles — sold out immediately. This follows previous sellouts in South America and Europe.

The tour resumes in Macao on Jan. 4, with stops planned in 14 cities across South America, the US, and Europe, running through March.
