Maroon 5 is one of the bands that has maintained its top position in pop music history for the longest time and enjoys global popularity. Leading with frontman Adam Levine's unparalleled vocals, they debuted in 2002 with their album [Songs About Jane], showcasing a unique sound blending rock and R&B. Over more than two decades, they have released numerous mega-hit songs, solidifying their status as a world-class pop band, and have recorded over 110 million album sales and over 815 million single sales worldwide to date.

A total of 32 songs, including "Makes Me Wonder," "Moves Like Jagger (ft. Christina Aguilera)," "One More Night," and "Girls Like You (ft. Cardi B)" — all of which reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart — have appeared on the charts. On Spotify, 12 songs each achieved over 1 billion streams, with cumulative streaming exceeding 34 billion to date. Additionally, they have been nominated for the Grammy Awards a total of 13 times and have won three awards. Based on these outstanding achievements, Billboard named Maroon 5 as "the best band of the 21st century" and ranked them as the "11th best artist of the 21st century."

Their eighth studio album [Love Is Like], released in 2025, is praised as a comeback work that revives the charm of early Maroon 5 while experimenting with new musical styles and focusing on songwriting, which was central to the band's origins. The collaboration "Priceless" with BLACKPINK's Lisa also drew global attention. To commemorate the album release, the band performed 24 arena shows across the United States, selling out multiple venues including Madison Square Garden in New York and the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, proving their immense popularity. Following their headline performance at London's Hyde Park this year, they are set to headline Rock in Rio in September.

Maroon 5 has performed over 850 concerts in more than 30 countries, selling over 8.35 million tickets and establishing themselves as a world-class live band. Since their first concert in Korea at the Gymnastics Stadium in 2008, they have consistently sold out shows at Jamsil Sports Complex Auxiliary Stadium and Gocheok Sky Dome, and held solo concerts in Busan and Daegu, earning great popularity in the country. Starting with a tour in Taiwan next January, Maroon 5 has confirmed an Asia tour including Korea, marking their return to domestic fans with a solo concert approximately three years after their last visit in 2024.
