Singer BIBI has triumphantly wrapped up her first-ever world tour, marking the end of a spectacular five-month journey since her debut.
Titled “2025 BIBI 1st World Tour [EVE],” the tour began in Seoul in May and captivated global music fans across 17 cities throughout North America, Asia, and Oceania — including Chicago, Toronto, New York, and Los Angeles, before continuing to Auckland, Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane in October. The large-scale tour was unprecedented for a K-pop female solo artist, highlighting BIBI’s growing global stature. Notably, it was her first-ever live performance tour in Oceania, making it an even more meaningful milestone.
Local media outlets in the U.S. and Australia praised her performances, describing BIBI as “a new wave of K-pop emotion” and “a one-of-a-kind experience,” further proving her unique global influence.
The world tour served as a culmination of BIBI’s artistic vision, unfolding the narrative of her second full-length album “EVE: ROMANCE” on stage through a story-driven concert format that delivered deep emotional immersion. Conveying the message, “Even after love ends, I still exist,” BIBI expressed the full spectrum of emotion through dynamic performances. The 150-minute setlist featured 25 songs, all performed live — including her hits “Bam Yang Gang,” “Sugar Rush,” “Hongdae R&B,” “Dere,” and “BAD XX” — showcasing her musical depth and stage mastery.
Continuing to evolve year after year, BIBI has now solidified her status as a global artist through this tour. Having previously become the first Korean female soloist to perform twice at Coachella, she fully unleashed her artistry on this solo stage. As NBC once described her — “Global Superstar BIBI” — she is steadily turning that title into reality.
