aespa wraps Seoul Gocheok Dome run, kicks off 25-city 'SYNK : COMPL∆XITY' world tour

aespa wrapped the second night of their Seoul run at Gocheok Sky Dome on August 8. It was the group's first time at the venue and the opening salvo for SYNK : COMPL∆XITY world tour.

The tour centers on LEMONADE, their second full-length album from May, which hit the Billboard 200 at No. 9. Their last tour, SYNK : aeXIS LINE, launched in August last year. The Seoul shows landed two months after album promotions ended.

In the interim, aespa released their first Japanese mini-album KISS N TELL and held a local fan meeting in Japan. They're also booked for the main stage at Waterbomb Seoul 2026 and Chicago's Lollapalooza.

From Seoul, the tour expands to 25 regions globally. Confirmed stops include Taipei, São Paulo, Seattle, and Paris.

All four members spoke after the final Seoul show. Winter: "I'm so happy to have finished the concert well with our MY over these two days." Karina said she hopes the concert "becomes a precious memory for everyone." Ningning called it "a really fun time" and promised better sides ahead. Giselle credited the audience: "Thanks to everyone, we were able to prepare hard and perform well."

(MY is the official fandom name.) The global leg begins next.
