Taeyeon blossomed in the 'K-Pop Holy Land'... 130-minute running time proved by the K-pop empress


It was tight and solid.

Taeyeon held her 5th solo concert 'The ODD Of LOVE' at KSPO DOME, Olympic Park, Seoul on the 4th at 5pm. It was a performance worthy of the modifier 'believe and listen to Taeyeon'. There was no gap in the 130-minute running time led by himself.

In the aftermath of the new coronavirus infection (Corona 19), Taeyeon met fans after about 3 years and 5 months. Their outstanding live skills and captivating performances seemed to blow away all the regrets they had had so far.

Taeyeon's solo concert predicted success from the ticket opening. The performances held on the 3rd and 4th were sold out, even seats with limited visibility. This is an indicator of the popularity of Taeyeon, a solo singer, not Taeyeon of SNSD.

◆ KSPO DOME, 'Holy Land of K-Pop Concerts' filled alone

This performance has a great meaning for Taeyeon. The concert venue is KSPO DOME, which is called K-pop holy ground. It can accommodate about 10,000 people. It is the fifth female solo singer. In the past, Patty Kim, BMK, Insuni, and IU performed here.

The reason why Taeyeon confidently chose KSPO DOME as the venue for her concert is because of her rich set list. Taeyeon appeared to the fans in a long black dress. About 10,000 fans welcomed Taeyeon with loud cheers.

The performance started with the hit song 'INVU'. A roaring crowd of fans continued, and Taeyeon's vocals, which could be heard through the shouts, brought admiration. It was followed by 'Can't Control Myself', 'That Night', 'Set Myself On Fire', 'Siren', and 'Cold As Hell'. ' and 6 songs as the opening stage to raise the atmosphere.

'Taeyeon's sincerity' was also felt in the concert stage setting and stage movement. Firecrackers exploding one after another, undisturbed lighting, pillars of fire, and airshots of scented paper pollen made Taeyeon's performance even brighter. The movement line drawing the letter I from the center of the stage was also impressive. It is a movement concept that highlights the concerns and consideration of an artist who wants to be in close contact with fans as much as possible.
