In a move that has ignited excitement across the global E.L.F. (Ever Lasting Friends) community, Super Junior’s Donghae has officially announced the dates and locations for his highly-anticipated first-ever solo concert tour.
This landmark event, titled the “2026 Donghae 1st Solo Concert Tour,” represents a significant step in the artist’s two-decade-long career.
While Donghae has previously performed extensively as part of Super Junior and its sub-unit Super Junior-D&E, this tour marks the very first time he will headline a series of shows entirely on his own, showcasing his unique musicality and personal performance style.
The Tour Kick-Off and Initial Asia Stops
The solo tour is scheduled to begin in May 2026, launching with two grand opening nights in Seoul on May 16 and 17.
Following the hometown kick-off, Donghae will travel across Asia to meet his international fans.
The announced itinerary includes major cities that have long been strongholds for the “Hallyu” wave and Super Junior’s enduring popularity. After Seoul, the tour will make its way to:
- Taipei
- Hong Kong
- Kaohsiung
- Macau

These stops highlight Donghae’s deep connection with the Greater China region, where he and Super Junior-M have historically enjoyed massive success.
Fans in these cities can expect a setlist that likely spans his solo discography, including his digital singles and perhaps new material prepared specifically for this tour.
Japanese Leg: A Five-Day Special Event
One of the most notable segments of the tour is the Japanese leg. According to official announcements from his Japanese management, the “2026 Donghae 1st Solo Concert Tour in Japan” will feature five dedicated performance days across Osaka and Tokyo during the summer of 2026.
This extended stay in Japan underscores the immense demand for Donghae’s solo work in the country, where he has built a robust reputation not just as a singer, but as a songwriter and performer.
The Japanese official website encouraged fans by stating:
“This summer, please enjoy Donghae’s live performance!”—signaling a high-energy show tailored for the season.
Expectations and Artistic Evolution
Donghae’s solo debut on the concert stage comes at a time of peak activity for the artist.
Alongside his solo preparations, he remains a key participant in Super Junior’s 20th-anniversary activities, including the ongoing “Super Show 10” world tour.
This solo venture allows him to explore a different artistic dimension, one that is perhaps more intimate or experimental than the large-scale spectacle of a full group concert.
As the “main dancer” and a primary songwriter for many of Super Junior-D&E’s hits, Donghae is expected to bring a high level of choreography and musical direction to his solo stage.
Fans are eagerly anticipating how he will fill the stage alone, with many hoping for acoustic guitar segments, soulful ballads, and the charismatic dance tracks he is famous for.
The tour is a testament to the fact that even after 20 years in the industry, Donghae continues to reach new heights:
“Super Junior’s Donghae is going on tour!”
With additional venues and dates expected to be announced as the tour progresses, 2026 is shaping up to be a defining year for Donghae.
Fans are encouraged to stay tuned for venue-specific details and ticketing information, as this historic tour is expected to sell out rapidly across all announced locations.
