Japanese representative idol Kento Nakajima visits South Korea on his first Asian tour.

Kento Nakajima released his second solo album, "IDOL1ST," in February this year and is currently holding the nationwide tour "IDOL1ST Kento Nakajima" LIVE TOUR 2026.

During yesterday's Fukuoka concert, which marks the midpoint of a nationwide tour visiting 10 cities in Japan from February to July, Kento Nakajima announced, "Starting this summer, we will hold six performances across three cities: Taipei·Bangkok·Seoul."

The poster released after the announcement of the Asia tour features both the image of star Kento Nakajima on stage and the appearance of a stylish, mature idol, further heightening fans' expectations. Nakajima Kento's first Asia tour stop in Korea will be held over two days, the 3rd and 4, at the Olympic Hall in Seoul Olympic Park.

Nakajima Kento, an idol in his 14th year of debut this year, began his career as a member of the idol group "Sexy Zone" in 2011, continuing the path of Japan's leading actor-idols. In 2024, he graduated from the group and demonstrated his prowess as a solo artist by drawing 60,000 audience members to arena concerts held alongside the release of his solo album. Subsequently, he successfully held a nationwide tour across seven cities in Japan within seven months, solidifying his independence as a solo performer.

His connection with Korea began in 2021 when he was cast as the male lead in the Japanese remake of MBC's Wednesday-Thursday drama "She Was Pretty," starring Hwang Jung-eum and Park Seo-joon.

Kento Nakajima, following his achievement of a triple crown on the Oricon Weekly Album Chart, Oricon Weekly Digital Album Chart, and Oricon Weekly Combined Album Chart with his second solo album "IDOL1ST" at the start of this year, is also set to embark on his second nationwide tour in Japan and an Asia tour, further expanding his influence as a solo artist. Additionally, the Japanese NHK drama "Convenience Store Brothers Tenderness Mojiko Koganemura Store" is scheduled to begin airing at the end of this month.

Following the announcement of the Asia tour, Nakajima Kento stated through his agency, Star Entertainment, "Our first Asia tour has finally been confirmed. This opportunity to embark on such a large-scale tour is entirely thanks to all of you who have supported us Jeong Mal (Auditor). As a Japanese idol, I will now bring my music directly to U:nity, the fandom that has loved and cheered for me from afar, by pouring my heart and soul into every note on a single microphone. This year will be a year of great challenges. I will pour everything I have out to the world."
