Commmercial performance

Seoul (South Korea) In August 2025, Super Junior kicked off their Super Show 10 world tour with a sold-out concert at the KSPO Dome in Seoul. The concerts attracted over 30,000 fans across multiple dates. Due to overwhelming demand, the group added an extra show after fan-club pre-sales sold out the initial dates within minutes. This reaffirmed Super Junior’s enduring popularity in their home country and their continued status as one of K-pop’s top-performing live acts.

Taipei (Taiwan) Super Junior made history by becoming the first K-pop group to perform at the Taipei Dome, one of the largest indoor venues in Taiwan. Tickets sold out immediately during the pre-sale, and the remaining seats from the general sale were sold out within just three minutes. This milestone further highlighted the group’s immense popularity in Taiwan, where they have consistently topped music charts, received numerous KKBOX Music Awards, and maintained a strong local fanbase for over a decade.

Following their performances in Korea and Taiwan, Super Junior continued their tour with sold-out shows in several other major Asian cities including Hong Kong, Jakarta (Indonesia), Manila (Philippines) and Nagoya (Japan).

These sold-out concerts across Asia demonstrate the group's wide-reaching appeal and consistent drawing power in key markets throughout the region.
