Having made their debut in 2012, EXO has become one of the fastest and best-selling South Korean artistes to date.
Its first album XOXO had sold over a million copies over seven months in 2013. Its following studio album EXODUS also had achieved similar success last year, earning the group the title “million-seller”.
EXO, who is currently the highest ranked South Korean artiste on the US Billboard 200 charts, first came to Malaysia in 2013 as one of the performers for MTV World Stage that year.
In 2014, the group had held an Asian tour, EXOPLANET #1 - THE LOST PLANET, but Malaysia wasn’t on the list of its stops.
The nine members then embarked on their second world tour, EXO Planet #2: The EXO’luXion beginning March last year, with stops in South Korea, Japan, China, Macau, Hong Kong, Thailand and Taiwan.
EXO will begin touring in North America for the first time, visiting five main cities next month.
The EXO Planet #2 –The EXO’luXion World Tour Live in Malaysia 2016 is jointly organised by Star Planet and IMC Live Group and presented by Spritzer Mineral Water.
