HYBE's music label artists, including BTS member j-hope, SEVENTEEN, TOMORROW X TOGETHER, and ENHYPEN, have showcased immense influence in the Asian concert market this year, solidifying K-pop's global stature.

According to the latest 'ASIA FOCUS CHARTS : TOP TOURING ARTISTS' report released by the American performance industry publication Pollstar, SEVENTEEN secured the second position, trailing only Coldplay. The chart period covers October 1, 2024, to September 30, 2025.

Further solidifying HYBE's dominance, ENHYPEN ranked third, j-hope fifth, and TOMORROW X TOGETHER eighth, all within the top 10. Notably, all K-pop artists listed in the top 10 belong to HYBE labels, standing alongside international superstars like Lady Gaga and Maroon 5.

SEVENTEEN captivated audiences by selling out Japan's four major domes during their 'SEVENTEEN [RIGHT HERE] WORLD TOUR' last year. They subsequently conquered major Asian city stadiums in the first half of this year, including venues in Bulacan, Singapore, Jakarta, and Bangkok. Their status was further affirmed by their win for 'Top K-pop Touring Artist' at the '2024 Billboard Music Awards (BBMAs)'.

ENHYPEN demonstrated explosive growth with their 'ENHYPEN WORLD TOUR ‘WALK THE LINE’’ Asia leg, filling up both domes and stadiums since commencing in October last year. They marked their presence as a 'top-tier K-pop group' by becoming the fastest international artist to perform at a Japanese stadium just 4 years and 7 months after their debut.

j-hope uniquely entered the 'Top 5' as the only K-pop solo artist. His world tour 'HOPE ON THE STAGE' saw all 21 shows across 10 Asian cities sold out. He set a milestone as the first Korean solo artist to perform at the BMO Stadium in Los Angeles and proved his robust ticket power by drawing over 342,000 spectators solely from his Asian performances.

TOMORROW X TOGETHER performed 28 shows in 11 Asian cities during their third world tour 'TOMORROW X TOGETHER WORLD TOUR' and its subsequent episode tour, as well as their ongoing fourth world tour. They are currently embarking on a five-dome tour in Japan, showcasing their grandeur as 'stage tellers'.

Fans reacted enthusiastically, commenting, 'So proud of HYBE!', 'Our artists' global influence is incredible,' and 'Wishing them continued success!'.
