82MAJOR hits Paris stage at K-EXPO Inkigayo, then heads to Hong Kong and Bangkok

82MAJOR took the stage at Palais des Congrès de Paris on June 17 for K-EXPO Inkigayo in Paris, a concert-and-culture showcase marking 140 years of Korea-France diplomatic relations.

The six members — Nam Seong-mo, Park Seok-jun, Yoon Ye-chan, Jo Seong-il, Hwang Seong-bin, and Kim Do-gyun — had already met French fans the day before at the local K-Content Planet venue on June 16 for a mini fan signing and talk session. Their Paris set includes the new title track Sign, catalog cuts, and a special cover stage reworking hits by senior artists. Harts2Harts and NCT WISH also perform covers at the event.

This Paris appearance comes three months after 82MAJOR's previous visit to France. Their fifth mini album Film, released in April, set a new personal record for first-week sales. Sign climbed the upper tiers of domestic music charts as well as iTunes charts in France and Spain.

The full K-EXPO lineup includes Taemin, Stella Jang, MONSTA X, NCT WISH, and Harts2Harts. Taemin performs a new song for French audiences for the first time alongside MOVE. MONSTA X plays DRAMARAMA and Love Killa. Stella Jang, who studied in France, performs her French-language original L'Amour, Les Baguettes, Paris live. The venue also hosts K-beauty, K-food, and K-tech experience spaces, plus a K-food cooking show with actor Ryu Su-young. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korean Creative Content Agency organized the event. SBS broadcasts it on June 26 at 12:20 AM.

82MAJOR's run continues with solo concerts in Hong Kong on June 27 and 28, a solo concert in Bangkok on July 4, and a fan concert in Seoul on July 18 and 19.
