SINGAPORE – Chinese boy band WayV will be making their way to Singapore as part of their WayV Fanmeeting Tour Phantom on June 2.
This is in support of the group’s fourth extended play album Phantom, which had topped the charts since its release in December 2022.
However, the 6pm gig at The Star Theatre will be missing one of their six members.
Kun, Ten, Xiaojun, Hendery and Yangyang will be in Singapore, but not Winwin, according to a tweet from their Twitter account on Monday.
A Chinese subunit of K-pop boy band NCT, WayV were originally a seven-member group when they formed in 2019.
On Wednesday, their management agency SM Entertainment announced the departure of Lucas, who had been on hiatus since August 2021.
The once-popular Hong Kong-born idol was mired in scandals involving his ex-girlfriends, who accused him of cheating, leeching money and gaslighting.
Tickets cost between $148 and $268, and go on sale on Monday at noon via Ticketmaster (go to www.ticketmaster.sg or call 3158-8588) and SingPost outlets.
The tour kicked off in February in Seoul and includes stops in Manila, Bangkok and Hong Kong.
