Kim Junsu’s upcoming concert tour dates and venues in the Americas have been confirmed!
Kim Junsu will kick off his world tour on August 30 at New York’s Hammerstein Ballroom where JYJ also held its showcase in back in 2010. The venue has also been used in the past by famous musicians such as P.Diddy, Nicki Minaj, Nas and others.
Kim Junsu will then hold a concert at L.A.’s Hollywood Palladium on September 2 before moving on to Mexico City’s Blackberry Auditorium on September 6, Brazil’s Sao Paolo’s Espacio Victory on September 8 and capping things off at Chile’s Santiago’s Teatro Caupolica on September 10.
A staff on the South American concert preparations shared, “Kim Junsu’s world tour news is already causing a fervor among fans here. Though we know economically or profit-wise the South America tour is not as appealing, we believe after the concerts, a positive effect will result in the Americas according to C-Jes’ strategy.”
A C-Jes representative added, “The world tour is part of our limitless challenges. Even for America’s pop singers, holding a tour in North and South America is not an easy task. We will hold a successful concert and we have confidence in our infrastructure and system.”
Kim Junsu is finishing up work on his upcoming repackaged album including the English language single and music video which was produced and shot in LA. He will finish his Asia tour in Hong Kong on August 7 before embarking on his world tour.

JYJ‘s Junsu has confirmed a total of five cities for his world tour in North and South America!

Realistically, we know that South American tours aren’t affective income-wise, but we feel that this tour will have a positive effect through C-JeS Entertainment‘s promotional tactics.”
Junsu expressed, “I recently stayed in the States where I worked on my single album and music video. I’m really satisfied with the results of it, and am filled with excitement and anticipation over meeting my fans all over the world once again.”

Reblogged this on joonhyean and commented:
OMG! He is going to be in Mexico. Finally a country where i can go.
Okay! Lilibaiyu, we are on for the 2nd! I’m so glad it’s not a week night in L.A., but it looks like I’ll be taking the day after off from work. Junsu, you are worth it!
@Eljay
Marking my calendar. The Palladium, huh? Not a particularly large venue… It’s going to be packed to the rafters that night…
I discovered that when I looked up the venue. Is the venue fairly close to you? I just realized the next day is Labor Day, so I’m off anyway. Sweet!
@eljay
“I discovered that when I looked up the venue. Is the venue fairly close to you? ”
Yes, it’s just over the hill. I have to say this seems more doable than the venue JYJ played at last time they were here. I hate driving that far downtown. But Hollywood is my old stomping ground so that’s easy.
🙂
Are you going to get a hotel room that night?
Lilibaiyu, I’m seriously considering it. I think it might be fun to do and even though I could drive home that night, a 2 1/2 hour drive after after the concert would be a huge letdown. Do you have any suggestions as to where? I was looking up hotels in the area and if I’m going to splurge, it’s not going to be a Motel 8 or anything along those lines! In fact, I’m debating about spending either Saturday or Sunday in the area and checking it out since I’ve never done that before. You have plans? 😉 It’d be a good excuse don’t you think? Oh, and I was serious about picking you up and doing the driving or what will work for you. I find carpooling in LA is much easier.
May I jump in here? 🙂
YES!!!!
Ladies, we only live once. I will be checking the NYC venue and Ticketmaster like crazy. I have to delay a trip to Chicago for one day, but it will be worth it. OH HAPPY DAY!
Can you hear the bells on my toes?! 🙂
Look forward to hearing all about your LA concert experience. Eljay, please make sure she doesn’t try and grab him off the stage. I know Jae is her weakness, but I have no doubts she will be entranced. 😉 Lili, you do the same ok?
It is a HAPPY DAY, and yes, I can hear them jingling all the way over here in my little corner of the world! 🙂
Aw drats, and here I thought a tag team effort might actually work. 😉 I have no doubt she will be and maybe it’s a good thing to introduce her to them one at a time. I know how entranced I felt the first time I saw all 3 live…heck, even the second time I saw them! Actually, I think I’m a hopeless case since that feeling will never go away where JYJ is concerned.
🙂 😉
WHAT OMG R U SERIOUS CANADA IS FREAKIN NORTH AMERICA TOO

Dear C-jes,
The opportunity cost for Junsu is much higher. He is not a PR of JYJ either. ( sorry just personal opinion)
If possible, hurry book with Shanghai mercedes-benzarena for Junsu , a 14,000 pax grand place,
ONLY ONE HOUR flight from SK. Less talented
K-pop groups earned real income there already.

About the ” positive effect”, if not measurable or tangible, would be a “economic regret” for an artist who is about to go to boot camp.
@Aurora what do you mean when you said the below? What does PR mean? I just ask because I am clueless as to what you are saying. I am not saying anything against what you are saying but I just do not understand what you are saying.
“Dear C-jes,

@flower,
Public Relations.
Understand C-jes has promotion strategy as given in article, Junsu might be the best available one to contribute promoting JYJ .
Nothing offensive.
“Dear C-jes,

Can you kindly elaborate what do you mean by this? You are in a JYJ site, so please enlighten us to avoid misunderstanding.

So in future JYJ WW,,it will be thanks to Junsu?, you don’t need to reply, let’s not spoil this article, I get it.
lol tbh i’m a lil confused..coz the original comment read ‘not’..but the explanation implies ‘is’ ..assuming it ‘is’ i figure she meant that c-jes is using junsu’s solo album as a pr tool for JYJ’s upcoming worlwide album.. just to get some buzz started..^^ sell out some smaller venues now..and later on this year when they come back as 3..sell out the nokia theater maybe?? XDD
i’m guessing ur trying to say that a tour date in the U.S might cause some financial losses as k-pop is not as big there as it is in Shanghai right? ^^
Can’t really understand what this sentence means though “The opportunity cost for Junsu is much higher. He is not a PR of JYJ either. ( sorry just personal opinion)” OTL
However i think the situation in America is pretty similar to how things were in Japan when TVXQ first entered the market..kpop is growing in America and usual our boys as hallyu leaders are always inclined to break first ground, no matter how hard it may be..^^
@0101jyj
Appreciate for your understanding, pls pardon me if any uncomfortable feeling incurred thru my casual writing.
Just whenever see any less talent K-pop groups swept occupied the best venues & better dates , furious mind
lost control again (even the SuSx performed at this mercedes -benzarena >< sigh..)
JYJ only 3 persons, for survival sake, 2 need filming first, now only Junsu fighting against many others groups of singers , …( sportseoul voting, others charts etc ) , normal ppl working time & body energy got limit, perhaps should focus fighting at nearby neighbor countries.
Support JYJ non-stop, ready running to HMV for Junsu's repacked album again ^^ , earnestly waiting for Jae's & YC's solo ablums, and JYJ albums, live concerts as 3.
No Peru,
Iam happy Mexico and Brazil new countrys to explore
Chile again!!! I’m soooooooo happy right now!
Hi everyone =)

FINALLY some news!!! Annoyed I have to miss some days on my first week of classes, but more than that, SUPER EXCITED!!! I really hope tickets aren’t too expensive!!! Anyone else from Ohio planning on going to the NY concert?? 😀
New York on Thursday and L.A on Sunday huh? C-JeS is making it a bit hard for someone who has to fly out of state like me, The L:A stop seems more ideal since Monday is Labor Day. I’ll try to manage because I don’t wanna miss Junsu’s concert. >__<
Reblogged this on Just a Girl… and commented:
Exciting news! I’m going to try to head to NYC and LA. Who else is going?
im going to NY!!!!! from where are u going??
NY for sure, but I think I may also try for LA.
I’m going to the NYC one. Here is the website for the actual venue:
http://www.livenation.com/Manhattan-Center-Hammerstein-Ballroom-tickets-New-York/venue/280
Sorry, I don’t know how to make it a link. This is where JYJ came in 2010. The dates aren’t up yet for Junsu. I’m going to keep checking. I drove to NJ and got a train into NY. Parking there would be crazy. I believe the train is w/in 4 blocks or so of the venue.
i will be taking the LIRR there
I think the Hollywood Palladium only seats about 4,000. I hope I can get a ticket.
I am definitely going to try to go the NYC concert!
wow junsu so DAEBAK!!
ihope the world tour turns out well 😀
HE’S COMING TO MEXICO! THIS IS BEYONG AMAZING! I’M SO GONNA BE THERE! FIRST ROW BABY!!
I JUST SCREAMED, RAN, ROLLED ON THE FLOOR AND SO ON FOR ABOUT 5 MINS! EVERYONE AT HOME WERE LIKE “UH?” HAHAHAHAHA POMGPOKDÄSKÄDO
SAME HERE !!! I WAS SO SAD BECAUSE I USED TO LIVE 30MIN AWAY FROM NYC AND I WAS SO SURE HE’D GO THERE BUT ID NEVER THOUGHT HE’D COME TO MEXICO !! BUT HE IS !! HE ACTUALLY IS COMING !!
OMG MORE MEXICAN FANS!!!! WE ARE GOING TO SEE JUNSU, I CAN NOT EVEN BELIEVE THIS XDDDDDD ASADASADAASDASAASADA *_______*
The LA concert is less than an hour’s drive from my residence if I take the Sta. Ana freeway! Geezz, why am I in the wrong continent now? Hmmmm…seriously thinking of filing an emergency leave.
Anyone knows about ticket selling for junsu concert in hong kong? Is it already in public sale or not? I can’find information regarding hong kong stop 😦
Same! I can’t find anything either- I’ve tried hkticketing.com and the HKCEC website as well but there’s nothing on it!
samee! I can’t find it anywhere, I’ve tried looking for it on hkticketing.com and the HKCEC official website but there’s nothing!
Poor me,I missed both HK and LA con due to my schedule. T__T
MEXICO MEXICO MEXICO I STILL CANT BELIEVE THIS!!! OMG im going to see him live….dear God, im gonna die of happines TT TT JUNSU THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! <3333333
I am so happy for Junsu and to hear this news!!!! Can someone explain this statement from the article. Why would in South America it want be affective income-wise, I am clueless? I knew Junsu had to go back to Chile. they absolutely loved him there and he loved them just as much!!!!!! I am also so happy for the fans in Mexico, they will get a chance to see him. I am happy for anyone who gets to experience Junsu live!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Realistically, we know that South American tours aren’t affective income-wise, but we feel that this tour will have a positive effect through C-JeS Entertainment‘s promotional tactics.”
in chile don’t love him? why?
in chile don’t love junsu? what they have against junsu?
What! I said Chile love Junsu!! I just came to that conclusion on my own based on the reaction of the fans and the many Junsu things they held up at the concert when JYJ went to Chile. To me he got an awesome loved reaction from the fans. The fans in Chile were amazing!!! I still look at and love the videos from their performance there. So I think Junsu felt their love and wanted to go back so he include them one of his tour stops.
It’s not saying they won’t do well. The issue is cost of going that far. The expenses add up the farther you have to travel, especially with a group. So, when they make an investment to go to SA, especially Chile, they go knowing it will not be as profitable as closer locations.
They are going back because of how well they were treated by the promoter and the fans. Simply love. 😉
Looking forward sooooooo much for his concerts in Europe. I only hope his management chooses places for concerts big enough for all his fans :))) because we all want to see him, hear him and be able to show Junsu our love and support. Europe loves you Su 🙂
Lucky American fans !!! I hope dates for Europe will come soon… No matter the location if it takes place in Europe, I’ll be there for sure !! We’re waiting for you Junsu !!
go junsu! ^___^
Aigoo, no Canada. 😦 My mission failed to get him to Toronto, Canada..
Looks like I may have to travel to NY…
I’m going to NY concert if it kills me! now time to plan for hotel, train tickets, and If anyone can tell me when the concert tickets go on sale?
Reblogged this on Ai.
wow N & SA tour dates are confirmed? Congrats to American fans, you’ll experience Xia’s magical night like we did.
Don’t miss the chance! Hope for Europe tour dates will be confirmed soon for European fans.
Go XIA!! Rock the world!
congratulations…. junsu… Go.. Go… I hope the next world tour bring JYJ go…..
Finally show in Brazil, I can hardly believe it
CANADA…T.T why are we always left out….we are north america too….T.T
JYJ came last time and it was the second best day of my life….(first being the mirotic con)
COME TO VANCOUVER!!!!!
Reblogged this on DB5K LEGENDS.
Oh they are beginning to confirm the concert dates ! I am patiently (as if ;)) waiting for the European concerts now !! ^^
Junsu!! I will still love you wherever you may go!! Junsu fighting!! Saranghae!!
I really want to go for the NY concert, if I can snatch a ticket before it’s sold out! I really need to know when the ticket sales would be open!! Would be going in from Boston, not that far…
Going to try and make it the NYC concert, but I am prepping for trial at the end of Aug. Even if I have to do an up and back, NYC to DC, I’ll try to get there!
Hey there! I’m in the same boat as you! I live in the DC area and I want to go to the concert. Are you still going to the NYC concert? If you are then I would definitely go with you since my plan was to go to NYC and then come back to DC that same night (by bus). Please contact me on my facebook if you want to meet up!
R u still going to the concert? I live in the DC area as well and I was planning to go to NYC and come back to DC the same night! If we could meet up/travel together then that would be great! You can also email me if you want to talk! SetsunaAyu (at) aol com

Yes! North America and South America!
CHILE FANS!!!!!! You Guys Rock!
@A Friend Of JYJ
LOL Oh, girlfriend… I so wish you lived in L.A! I’m laughing right now thinking of you, me and Eljay showing up at the Xia concert in September together and going NUTS! We’ll, miss you, I can tell you that!
🙂
xxoo
@lilibayu
OMG! Yes! I wish we could go together! Seriously you would probably disown me after the concert….. LOL! “That woman is certifiably nuts!”
Even now as I am posting here I am HOLDING BACK! I was going to post 100 lines of just Junsuuuuuuuuuu!!!! But I did not want to get banned….. LOL Anyway.. I’m buying a ticket for New York. If I can’t get those tickets then definitely going to Chile or Brazil. I know that sounds crazy but the fans in Chile were so amazing, watching the fancams gave me goosebumps… there was just something about that audience.. that made me feel like “Now this is what Fandom is really like!”
I know you and E will have a FANTASTIC time in LA. From the photos of the venue… looks like you are going to get to see Su up close as the venue looks pretty intimate. Personally if I were going to the LA concert I think I would do the balcony standing ticket.
You are so lovely *I’m a Chilean fan* That was the best concerto of my life 😀 ♥
Sorry I accidentaly pushed send, again
You are so lovely *I’m a Chilean fan* that was the best concert of my life ♥ I’m was really happy to see them Live and without a doubt I’m going to Junsu’s concert n_n
@Valeria
Hey there… sorry I did not reply sooner…
Yes, CHILEAN FANS are truly fantastic… I was totally amazed at the MASSIVE LOVE you guys showed JYJ during the concert… I COULD FEEL THE ENERGY as I watched the fancams! I also saw the way Junsu looked at the audience in a few of the fancams and he was totally feeding off the energy of Chilean fans that night! You guys pulled a performance out of him that was simply electrifying! I KNOW he can’t wait to get back to Chile with his XIA- Tarantellegra concert…. what he has in store for you and what Chile fans have in store for him in terms of your response will be like a nuclear explosion when the two meet! HAVE FUN! 🙂
This is trolling me ;_; … I was saying: You are so lovely *I’m a Chilean fan* that was the best concert of my life ♥ and now without a doubt I’m going to Junsu’s concert, thanks for all your love to chilean fans n_n
