The Wonder World Tour was announced by JYP Entertainment several days after the release of the mini-album Wonder Party . The tickets for the tour went on sale through Yes24 and Interpark's ticket booth on June 12, 2012.

After stepping away from the domestic market, in order to focus on the American activities, the girls wanted to return to Asian fans who supported and waited for their return with their solo tour. [17] When asked about their increased activities in Asia, the members replied, "Because we had to learn English in the States, the amount of time we spent there grew longer and longer, which meant we didn’t have a lot of time to see our Asian fans. In an effort to show and share more of us, we mutually agreed to increase our activities. We rushed the release of our new song for our first Korean concert in four years on July 7." [18]
