K-pop boy group INFINITE successfully staged the Comeback Again concert, the group’s first solo show in seven years! And as expected, it became an emotional reunion with their fans.
On August 19 to 20, the six-piece held the two-night concert at the KSPO Dome in Seoul.

But what made the show extra special for both INFINITE and INSPIRITs is that it’s the group’s first concert since 2017.
Since then, the members –Sunggyu, Dongwoo, Woohyun, Seungyeol, L, and Sungjong– have all left Woollim Entertainment, pursued solo careers, and carried out their military services.
Additionally, the group also established their own label, INFINITE Company, which is headed by Sunggyu. They also successfully transferred the trademark rights of their group’s name from their previous label.
However, aside from the performances during the concert, it was the group’s surprise event for fans that moved the attendees’ hearts.
Most often that not, it’s the fans who prepared projects during concerts. And while INSPIRITs did organize a surprise for the group, the fans were shocked when the members also had a surprise of their own.
All six members of INFINITE held banners that collectively read: “We know you’ve waited a long time. We’ll give you the happiness you deserve.”

INFINITE and INSPIRITs’ bond
Given how monumental the concert was, it was no surprising how emotional the INFINITE members were during the Comeback Again concerts.
“The members went through a lot. There were a lot of ups and downs. Thank you for filling the place yesterday and today, Thank you so much,” Woohyun said during the show.

Online fans also opened up how meaningful the messages are of the members during the show.
“The fears, doubts, hesitations, uncertainty after your military enlistment as well as establishing your own company, it was definitely not an easy path,” one wrote.
While another said: “You proved us more than that INFINITE. you assured us that made us build our trust on you. you did your promises like how you made it to us.”
