SINGAPORE – The K-pop acts just keep coming.
The latest South Korean group to announce a Singapore concert stop is girl group IVE, which made their debut in 2021.
The sextet will hold their first fan concert – a mash-up of a fan meeting and a concert, with performances and also fan interaction sessions such as game segments – on June 30 at The Star Theatre. Tickets range from $128 to $268 and will go on sale at noon on April 12 via Ticketmaster.
The group, comprising members Yujin, Gaeul, Rei, Wonyoung, Liz and Leeseo, were a hit out of the gate. Their first single Eleven sold more than 152,000 copies in its first week. They are only the third girl group to sell over 100,000 copies of their debut, after Blackpink and Aespa.
They followed that up with the chart-topping Love Dive and After Like. Love Dive, which has 203 million views on YouTube, also nabbed Song of the Year at several major Korean music awards shows, including the Melon Music Awards, MAMA Awards and Golden Disc Awards.

Aside from IVE, global sensation BTS’ Suga proved his prowess by immediately selling out a third night of his Singapore concert tour.
The 30-year-old rapper, who goes by Agust D in his solo music, sold out his previously announced two nights at the Singapore Indoor Stadium on June 17 and 18. This was just hours after tickets went on general sale on Wednesday morning. All tickets for the third show on June 16 – which ranged from $168 to $348 – sold out within three hours of going on sale at 3pm on Wednesday.
This is widely expected to be Suga’s last concert tour before he enlists for South Korea’s mandatory military service, following his bandmates Jin and J-hope.
BTS’ Suga has added a third show in Singapore due to overwhelming demand.
