Girl group aespa will hold its first concert “2023 aespa 1st Concert Synk : Hyper Line” on Feb. 25 and 26, the girl group’s agency SM Entertainment said Friday.
 
The concerts will be held at Jamsil Arena in Songpa District, southern Seoul, and the second day will also be livestreamed globally through the Beyond Live service.
 
The first concert will see aespa performing its megahits such as “Black Mamba” (2020) and “Next Level” (2021), alongside performances never shown before.

 
Tickets will be sold through booking website Yes24, and will be available to fan club members first on Jan. 27, followed by sales to the general public on Jan. 30.
 
aespa debuted in November 2020 with four members: Giselle, Karina, Ningning and Winter. It is known for its metaverse concept which centers around the story of the members’ alter-ego avatars that exist in the virtual world and can communicate with the members in real life.
  

The girl group will perform at the Governors Ball Music Festival 2023 in the United States in June, a first for a K-pop artist.
