The group Red Velvet-Irene & Seulgi (under SME) successfully concluded their first solo concert, proving the powerful potential of the 'perfect unit'.

The '2025 IRENE & SEULGI Concert Tour [BALANCE]' held at the Olympic Hall in Olympic Park, Seoul, on the 14th and 15th, is their first solo concert as a unit and opened the tour, recording a complete sell-out for both performances amidst hot interest, with the last performance on the 15th being live-streamed globally through the Beyond LIVE platform and Weverse, allowing fans in 40 regions worldwide including the U.S., Japan, the U.K., Germany, Canada, France, Brazil, and Taiwan to join in.

Especially, this concert incorporated the keyword 'balance' throughout the performance, perfectly reflecting the musical spectrum and chemistry the two members have built together, as well as their sincere feelings towards each other, creating unforgettable moments for everyone.

Starting with the title track 'TILT' from their second mini-album, the performance showcased powerful performances that captivated the audience with songs like 'Monster', 'Naughty', 'What’s Your Problem?', and highlighted the vocal synergy of the two members in pieces like 'Irresistible', 'Girl Next Door', 'Heaven', and 'Feel Good', 'Diamond', 'Trampoline', presenting their 'high-end' musical world in its entirety with their past releases.

Additionally, Irene & Seulgi recreated the stage for 'Be Natural', which they had first performed as the SM Rookies unit almost 11 years ago, seamlessly replicating the performance and camera movements, which raised the excitement in the concert hall to a peak, while during their solo stage, they exhibited their different charms and musical capabilities, showcasing the narrative and remarkable growth of the two members from their trainee days to the present.

Furthermore, the audience, filled with fans, waved their light sticks throughout the performance, offering enthusiastic cheers and applause, with a slogan event conveying messages such as 'With courage to be kinder, believe in my love' and 'Let’s stay together for a long, long time', as well as a chorus event before the encore for 'Sweet Dreams' and 'Future', culminating in a rose and card section photo time event which added to the emotion.

In response, Irene & Seulgi made a surprise appearance during the encore section, performing unit song 'Jelly' followed by Red Velvet hits 'Red Flavor', 'Power Up', 'Zimzalabim', and more with boundless energy, expressing their heartfelt gratitude by saying, “Thank you so much for staying by our side and allowing us to feel a sense of achievement and fulfillment for so long. Our fans, known as 'Luvies' (Red Velvet fandom name), are the reason we perform on stage. We will take the strength we received from the Seoul concert and do well on the tour.”

Having successfully concluded the Seoul concert, Irene & Seulgi are set to continue their Asia tour in six regions including Singapore on July 4, Macau on July 12, Bangkok on July 19, Taipei on August 3, Kuala Lumpur on September 13, and Tokyo on September 24-25.

Irene & Seulgi will hold a pop-up event to celebrate the release of their second mini-album 'TILT' at Jingdong Mall in Guangzhou, China, from June 20 to July 3, expected to draw explosive interest from local fans with various sights and activities.
