2PM successfully completed their highly anticipated Tokyo Dome concerts, proving their enduring popularity and emotional connection with fans even after more than a decade in the industry.
The group held their “2PM Japan 15th Anniversary Concert ‘THE RETURN’ in TOKYO DOME” on May 9 and 10, marking their first Tokyo Dome concerts in 10 years. Across two nights, approximately 85,000 fans filled the venue to witness the six-member reunion.
Members Jun. K, Nichkhun, Ok Taec-yeon, Wooyoung, Lee Jun-ho, and Chansung delivered over three hours of performances each night, combining Korean hit songs with beloved Japanese releases.
The setlist featured fan-favorite tracks including Take Off, I’m Your Man, Ultra Lover, and Guilty Love, along with signature performances of Heartbeat and My House.
The group’s trademark intense choreography, live vocals, large-scale stage production, and emotional fan interactions turned the concerts into a nostalgic yet powerful celebration of their legacy.
Members Share Emotional Messages With Fans
Throughout the concert, the members repeatedly expressed gratitude toward their longtime fandom, HOTTEST.
When the members greeted the audience in Japanese by saying, “We’re back. We are 2PM,” fans responded loudly with “Welcome back,” creating one of the most emotional moments of the night.
Jun. K shared that standing on the Tokyo Dome stage again after promising to return 10 years ago felt deeply meaningful, while Nichkhun described the two-day concert as “a dream-like time.”
