(Showbiz) K-Pop titans EXO set for KL concert

KUALA LUMPUR: Top-selling K-Pop group EXO is set to enthrall fans at Stadium Merdeka on March 18.

Organised by Star Planet, EXO Planet #3 The EXO'rDIUM In Malaysia marks its second time performing here.

The upcoming one-night-only concert is believed to be one of the biggest concerts of the year with an extraordinary production.

Other details on The EXO Planet #3 The EXO'rDIUM In Malaysia, including ticket prices and sales will be released soon.

Earlier this year, EXO held a concert here as part of its EXO Planet #2 The EXO'luXion tour. It drew over 15,000 fans.

The EXO Planet #3 The EXO'rDIUM concert tour is the group’s third since its debut in 2012.

The concert title, inspired by the Latin word “exordium” which means “beginning,” suggests that fans can expect to see a more mature and improved side of EXO.

Due to high demand, EXO kicked off this tour with six dates in Seoul last July. It set a new record as the first K-Pop group in history to have the longest solo concert ever to run at the Olympic Gymnastics Arena, with over 84,000 spectators.

EXO rose to fame with the release of its album XOXO in 2013, which sold more than one million copies, making it the best-selling album in South Korea since 2001.

EXO becomes a “triple million-seller” when their second and third studio albums, Exodus and Ex’Act, respectively, recorded platinum by selling more than a million copies.

Besides having received a string of awards, its song Growl was Billboard's No. 1 K-Pop song of 2013. It also received recognition for being the biggest influence in Korea by Forbes Korea in 2014 and 2015.
