ENHYPEN SET NEW YORK ABLAZE WITH SOLD-OUT START TO U.S. LEG OF ‘WALK THE LINE’ TOUR

Only months after captivating Coachella, ENHYPEN are proving their global pull once again with a series of sold-out shows across the U.S. The K-pop septet (JUNGWON, HEESEUNG, JAY, JAKE, SUNGHOON, SUNOO and NI-KI) kicked off the stateside run of their WALK THE LINE world tour on Aug. 6 and 7 with back-to-back, sold-out nights at UBS Arena in Belmont Park, New York. Just two days later, they brought the same high-voltage energy to another packed house at Chicago’s United Center on Aug. 9, marking a triumphant start to their six-city U.S. run.

The U.S. leg follows an already record-setting world tour that began with two stadium dates in Goyang, Korea last October. Since then, WALK THE LINE has filled domes and stadiums across Japan, the Philippines and Thailand. The group set a milestone as the fastest K-pop boy group to play Japanese stadiums and added a historic Coachella debut earlier this year to their growing list of achievements.

A Setlist that Tells a Story

Throughout the nearly three-hour shows in New York and Chicago, ENHYPEN drew on their journey of self-discovery and their shared destiny with ENGENEs as the tour’s thematic backbone. The setlist unfolded like a story, opening with the scorching “Brought The Heat Back” before diving into the sultry “XO (Only If You Say Yes)” and moving flawlessly through genre-spanning hits, reimagined arrangements and deep cuts.

Material from their latest Billboard 200 Top 10 release ‘DESIRE : UNLEASH’ (June 2025) and their career-high-charting 2nd studio album ‘ROMANCE : UNTOLD’ (July 2024) sat alongside their debut single “Given-Taken” and fan-favorite anthems like “Fever”, “ParadoXXX Invasion”, “Future Perfect (Pass the MIC)”, “Blessed-Cursed”, “Bite Me”, “Tamed-Dashed”, “Sweet Venom” and the arena-shaking “Go Big or Go Home”.

Fans were also treated to newer tracks “Loose”, “Fatal Trouble”, “Your Eyes Only”, “Scream”, “Moonstruck” and “No Doubt”. In a special twist, the U.S. dates feature the first-ever live performance of the English version of their latest single, “Bad Desire (With or Without You)”.

The nights weren’t short on surprises. The members made room for intimate, high-impact moments through special unit stages: JAY, JAKE, and SUNGHOON delivered an intense smoldering “Lucifer”. At the same time, JUNGWON, HEESEUNG, SUNOO and NI-KI tore into “Teeth” under a wash of green lasers. From start to finish, their signature blend of synchronized choreography, emotive vocals and onstage charisma was matched by striking visuals from cinematic VCRs to pyrotechnics, all punctuated by tour-exclusive Prada looks.

A Record-Breaking Global Run

Beyond the U.S., WALK THE LINE is a 28-show and 18-city global voyage, being the group’s most expansive tour to date. The August–September U.S. and Europe legs have already racked up multiple sell-outs, including New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, London, Amsterdam, Brussels, Berlin and Paris. Following the U.S. finale at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles on Aug. 16, ENHYPEN will head to Europe for their first-ever shows in the region, with stops in London (Aug. 22), Manchester (Aug. 25), Amsterdam (Aug. 28), Brussels (Aug. 30), Berlin (Sept. 1) and Paris (Sept. 3).

The tour will then close with WALK THE LINE: FINAL, a three-night encore at KSPO DOME in Seoul from Oct. 24–26 with online streaming for fans worldwide. Membership pre-sale for the Seoul shows opens Sept. 29 at 8 p.m. KST, followed by general sales on Oct. 1 at 8 p.m. KST.

Five Years of Countless Milestones

In just under five years since debuting with ‘BORDER : DAY ONE’, ENHYPEN have placed five albums in the Billboard 200 Top 10 — ‘MANIFESTO : DAY 1’ (No. 6, 2022), ‘DARK BLOOD’ (No. 4, 2023), ‘ORANGE BLOOD’ (No. 4, 2023), ‘ROMANCE : UNTOLD’ (No. 2, 2024), and ‘DESIRE : UNLEASH’ (No. 3, 2025) — while steadily scaling up venue sizes and markets each year. Their rapid rise includes a landmark U.S. stadium debut during last year’s FATE tour and becoming the fastest K-pop boy group to perform at Coachella. With WALK THE LINE, the seven members are not only building on that momentum, but they are proving what a global K-pop tour can be.
