Apink Confirmed for Full-Group Concert in December

Apink Announces Full-Group Concert for Christmas

On October 17, Choi Creative Lab officially announced, “Apink will hold their seventh group concert on December 21-22 at the KBS Arena in Seoul.” This long-awaited event promises to be a special treat for fans, as it will be their first full-group concert in four years, following their 2020 concert “Welcome to PINK WORLD.”

The members shared their enthusiasm, saying, “We will present a special Christmas gift to our fans, featuring a variety of meticulously prepared stages for this year’s end-of-year concert.” Their message hints at the group’s dedication to delivering an unforgettable experience, with carefully planned performances that highlight their signature charm and talent.

This concert is also significant as it will be Apink’s first as a five-member group since Son Naeun’s departure in 2022. While Naeun has pursued acting and other ventures, the remaining members—Chorong, Bomi, Eunji, Namjoo, and Hayoung—have continued to maintain Apink’s musical legacy, releasing albums and engaging with their fanbase, known as Pink Pandas.

Details about ticket sales and other concert-related information will be shared through Apink’s official social media channels. Fans are eagerly anticipating what promises to be a nostalgic and heartwarming celebration of Apink’s enduring career.

In related news, Apink has announced the recruitment for their eight official fanclub generation. Recruitment for PANDAs will begin on October 23 until November 13, 2024. It’s an awesome opportunity for fans to renew with Apink as they look forward to the upcoming concert in December.
