kino US tour who's going??? 🤩
ok I should have written more in the original post but reblogging to answer @gudakdalee's questions from the tags if u don't mind!
kino has a few solo songs at this point!
- pose
- fashion style
- freaky love
- broke my heart
- solo
- valentine
- dancing on the road
- everglow
#2 onwards was after his cube contract ended, #2-6 were part of the "if this is love, i don't want a refund" album, and #7-8 were recent single releases!
here is the setlist for the korean version of this concert with translations - there's actually a few ptg songs on there actually (shine, spring snow, sparkling night, nostalgia, cerberus, probably a few more?), it basically looks like 1/2 his official releases + 1/4 ptg songs + 1/4 his soundcloud songs. however I don't know if the setlist will change for the US tour + for the ptg songs if he did them in their entirety or just parts of them (like I saw a clip from his other concert where shine was just a sing-along of the chorus with the audience).
also if it encourages anyone, all stops except for NY still have VIP packages available where you can meet kino and take a photo (photos?) with him!
I'm sure he'd love to meet unis no matter how long they've been a fan 🥺 his english is also really good now, you can hear him speak in some tiktoks and he'll caption posts/reply to people in english and knows like trends and memes lmao. and I think most of his post-cube songs are all in english?
he made an IG for the tour with more info (@kino.tour) and here's an abbreviated concert description as well (if you live in other countries I hope kino comes tour near you!! I see a lot of people ask about europe and south america in his comments)
