Singers can prove themselves on stage.

RIZE, a boy group that has grown into a stage, proved it as a stage.

On the afternoon of the 8th, at KSPO DOME (formerly Gymnastics Stadium) in Bangi-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul, the first world tour of Rise (2026 RIIZE CONCERT TOUR [RIIZING LOUD] FINALE IN SEOUL) was held.

Rise opened its first world tour at the same venue in July last year. Rise, who entered KSPO DOME about two years after debuting in September 2023, doubled the fun with a richer setlist, first public stage, and band version arrangements, as if showing the meaning of the group name "Team to Grow Together and Realize Dreams".

The conceptual production that added to the fun of watching was also a point to watch. Various production methods tailored to the atmosphere of the song, such as desert projection covering all the stages, galaxy laser decorating the ceiling of KSPO DOME, turntable lift, and confetti with the members' handwriting, were outstanding.

The joy of listening is expected to be Rise's unrivaled weapon. Ordinary K-pop idol groups often use ear microphones with free hands to emphasize colorful productions that were difficult to show on music shows and intense performances that can only be shown on a wide stage.

But Rise was different. The six members sang all 25 songs using hand microphones, except for "Memories" and "Fly Up," out of a total of 27 stages for about 2 hours and 40 minutes from the opening song to the encore. Thanks to this, the audience was able to enjoy a live-oriented concert, feeling not only a vivid sense of reality, but also the quality of sound that fills the concert hall and the small breathing of the members.

Maybe that's why. Rise was full of confidence. So-hee said, "I'm going to perform until I pass out today," and Won-bin said, "I got goosebumps. Maybe because it was the last day, I was very nervous and excited. I'm going to do it more sexy, cooler, and cuter today, so please look forward to it," he said.

In particular, Anton said, "Yesterday, 'Let's open the lid of the concert hall,' so it opened a little yesterday. It opened up. Personally, I was disappointed. Are you confident with the lid today? I have no schedule tomorrow, so I don't have to save my voice, so I'll put my energy until the end," he said confidently.

Reigning to the encore stage after all the performances, Rise told how he felt about ending his first world tour finale. First of all, SUNGCHAN said, "This moment is always difficult. I just feel grateful. There are only six people on the stage right now, but many staff members are making this performance until this stage was made. Everything was possible because of Breeze's shouts, the moment when the members relied on each other when they were having a hard time, and there were people who worked hard out of sight. Thank you for trusting and loving us until the end. I will not forget my gratitude in the future, he said.

Shotaro then said, "I was happy to be able to do my first world tour after my debut with wonderful members. Thank you for always supporting us. I hope you look forward to the development in the future. I will also work harder to repay you," Eun-seok said. "I will try to develop further and become a person who will not be ashamed of Breeze."

Won Bin said, "This Seoul performance was the best stage. It was good that everyone looked at me with pretty eyes and cheered for me. We are nothing without Breeze. I'm always grateful. I don't think I've repaid everything yet. Let's stay together until we repay you. Don't look away, don't forget these memories and emotions, and let's meet again next time," So-hee said, "I just love you so much. Thank you. I want to tell you to stay with me. We can't live without Breeze."

Finally, Anton said, "I've grown a lot as a team through this tour," adding, "I didn't know how to cry. Honestly, I thought I wouldn't cry because it was so hard, but the members who worked the hardest next to me worked hard. We even filled up the Tokyo Dome. I love you," he said, shedding tears.

Rise released its new single "Fame" in November last year.
