History

On December 24, 2011, Shinee held a live showcase at the Tokyo International Forum to commemorate the release of their debut Japanese album, The First . At the event, they announced that they would embark on their first Japan nationwide concert tour, titled The First Japan Arena Tour "Shinee World 2012". [1] The tour started on April 25, 2012, with a total of seven stops in Fukuoka, Sapporo, Nagoya, Osaka, Kobe, Tokyo and Hiroshima. [2]

Due to the demand for tickets, it was announced on February 13, 2012, that six additional dates had been added to the line-up. This included one concert in Nagoya, three concerts in Osaka, and two concerts in Tokyo, for a total of 20 concerts. [3] However, as even these dates sold out, additional seats with a restricted view of the stage were added. These also sold out as soon as the tickets went on sale. [2]

The tour attracted 200,000 people during its run. This marked the first time a Korean artist's first Japan arena concert tour had achieved these attendance figures, [4] bringing in revenue of over 25 billion won (US$22 million). [5] On July 28, 2012, Fuji TV broadcast the concert with live video and original interviews. [6]
