The group EXO (EXO) concluded the grand journey of their tour that had continued for seven months. EXO, who poured out their energy for 150 minutes, delivered intense enthusiasm until the very end.

On the 8th, at the KSPO DOME in Songpa-gu, Seoul, the encore performance of EXO's sixth solo concert tour, 'EXO PLANET #6 - EXhorizon 'dot'', was held. The show attracted approximately 33,000 audience members and achieved a sold-out status for all seats, including restricted-view seats across all performances, proving EXO's unwavering popularity.

EXO opened the performance with 'Crown,' the title track from their eighth studio album. They then consecutively presented stages of 'Monster' and 'Suffocate,' heating up the atmosphere from the start.

Xiumin said, "The heat is no joke," and delivered a witty greeting: "'Dot' in 'dot'—today is the last dot." He added, "I heard you are watching this concert in movie theaters around the world. Let's finish it off healthily, without getting injured, while enjoying it."

Chanyeol said, "Something incredible happened yesterday. It was an unusual event and a huge shock, but yesterday you could have beaten us. With this tension, it won't end at two," raising expectations.

As it was the final performance, the members' resolve was also exceptional. D.O. stated, "Thank you for coming to see the concert on a precious Sunday. We will create an atmosphere that changes even the cloudy weather. After completing our Asia tour, we are holding our last concert in Seoul at the end. Today, we will set everything on fire."

Kai said, "I was so reluctant that I ate a hearty meal before coming. Besides, today is Sunday. Let's have fun hard," and Sehun urged, "As I have kept saying, today is the last day. This time will not come back again. Please enjoy it to the very end."

A medley of hit songs that compiled EXO's activities so far also followed. The setlist encompassing both present and past provided fans with memories. Every time representative tracks such as 'Love Shot,' 'Tempo,' 'Lotto,' 'Ko Ko Bop,' and 'CALL ME BABY' echoed, fans erupted in passionate cheers.

In addition to this, they maintained the heat of the performance while interacting with fans through a diverse composition including an EDM medley and winter songs. In particular, a spectacular scene unfolded where 'Run' from the EDM medley was performed three times in a row due to fans' passionate requests. Although the members sometimes sat down on stage due to the continuous grueling schedule, they ran and breathed together with the fans, raising the excitement until the very end.

EXO made their comeback after two years and six months with their eighth studio album 'REVERXE' in January last year. With this album, they achieved their eighth million-seller status overall, proving their global popularity by recording number one spots on domestic and international album and music charts, as well as a five-crown achievement on music shows.

Subsequently, EXO performed a total of 27 concerts in 14 regions worldwide, including Ho Chi Minh City, Nagoya, Taipei, Bangkok, Macau, Osaka, Jakarta, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Tokyo, Kaohsiung, and Singapore, starting from Seoul last April, reaffirming their presence as a representative K-pop group.

EXO filled the 150th minutes completely, including encore tracks such as 'Love Me Right,' 'Growl,' and 'Paradise,' while looking back on their seven-month journey and conveying their sincerity to fans.

Sehun shared, "I was truly very enjoyable and happy. Thank you all. While touring concerts continuously from April over these three days, I felt a lot of things, but the thought I heard most often was that performing on stage while looking at your faces and hearing our members' voices is truly a happy thing. It seems to have been a performance where I could feel this deeply once again."

He added, "I first want to express my sincere gratitude to all of you EXO-Ls who joined us for this concert, our members, and all our staff."

D.O. emphasized, "Your happy expressions and smiling faces were conveyed a great deal. Thanks to that, I am taking away a lot of energy. You must be truly happy."

Kai said, "To not let you down, EXO will prepare harder and return with an even more wonderful appearance, so please wait a little while," and expressed his feelings by adding, "Thank you for always filling me up so that I can perform on the stage I love."

Finally, Xiumin previewed, "Because there were so many people, our EXO could stand in this place again today, and I think we were able to deliver a good stage and good music. I am sincerely grateful. Hoping that we will continue to have a good relationship where we love and care for each other, I sincerely love all of you EXO-Ls. We will return as soon as possible with new music and performances."
