Seventeen, Forever Promised — Breathing with 180,000 Japanese Carats

They heated up the hot archipelago even more.

The group SEVENTEEN (S.Coups, Jeonghan, Joshua, Jun, Hoshi, Wonwoo, Woozi, The8, Mingyu, DK, Seungkwan, Vernon, Dino) connected with 180,000 CARATs, their fandom, through a Japan dome fan meeting with a promise toward forever.

SEVENTEEN held the 'SEVENTEEN 2026 JAPAN FAN MEETING 'YAKUSOKU'' at Kyocera Dome Osaka on the 23rd and 24th of last month, meeting around 80,000 fans over two days. Tickets sold out long beforehand, proving their formidable local popularity. Earlier, about 100,000 people attended the fan meeting at Tokyo Dome on the 13th and 14th.

Fans who could not attend in person joined through live viewing and online live streaming. The Tokyo fan meeting was broadcast live at more than 120 theaters across major regions in Asia, including Japan, Korea, Malaysia, and Indonesia. For the online live streaming of the Osaka performance, CARATs from 73 countries and regions including Korea, the United States, China, Singapore, and Canada gathered.

SEVENTEEN delivered a colorful set of 18 songs, ranging from Japanese original tracks such as 'Ima -Even if the world ends tomorrow-', 'CALL CALL CALL!', and 'Shohikigen' to Japanese versions of Korean songs like 'Snap Shoot', 'Gajima', and 'HOME;RUN'.

The live stage of 'Tiny Light', released last February, was also unveiled for the first time at the fan meeting, drawing cheers from fans. In addition, talks in the concept of a radio live broadcast and various games were added, filling about 3 hours and 30 minutes with nonstop entertainment.

As the fan meeting came to a close, SEVENTEEN promised, "We thought that as long as we are with CARAT, we can accomplish anything. Even when we cannot meet you, we are always growing. Each member is preparing many activities to meet you in different ways. All 13 of us will come back in an even more amazing form than anyone else."

SEVENTEEN will hold the '2026 SVT 10TH FAN MEETING 'SEVENTEEN in CARAT LAND'' at Incheon Asiad Main Stadium on the 20th and 21st of next month. It is a stadium-scale event rarely seen for a fan meeting. Tickets sold out completely on the day FC membership presales opened. As this is the event's 10th edition this year, it is drawing attention as something expected to create unforgettable memories for both the members and the fans.
