An additional nine dates in Japan was announced five days later.[1] The group announced a second Asian leg on August 27,[2] a North American leg on October 19,[3] and a European leg on December 13.[4]
The tour started on August 30, 2019, in Seoul, South Korea, and concluded on February 8, 2020, in Pasay, Philippines. Although it was originally planned to conclude in March, multiple dates in the second Asian leg, alongside the entire European leg, were cancelled as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.[5] Additionally, a concert scheduled for October 12, 2019, in Nagoya, Japan, was cancelled due to Typhoon Hagibis.[6]
