WOODZ wraps 8-month world tour with KSPO Dome encore, posts guitar close-up on Instagram

KSPO Dome closes out eight months on the road

WOODZ (Cho Seung-yeon, 30) shared a close-up of his hand on an electric guitar to Instagram on November 5. The caption read "ARCHIVE. 1 : COMPLETED (day2)" — a quiet full stop on a tour that lasted roughly eight months.

October 31 and November 1 at Seoul Olympic Park KSPO Dome marked the final dates of the 2026 WOODZ WORLD TOUR Archive. 1 : Completed. He pulled from his debut full-length album, mixing in catalogue staples Drowning and WAITING, all backed by a live band. Toward the end of night two, he spoke to the crowd with an emotional statement and promised to return with new music and stages.

The chart run that made the tour possible

Archive. 1 is WOODZ's first full-length record — a collection of songs written over time, with WOODZ credited on most of the writing and composition. Pre-release single CINEMA rolled out through live content and videos before the album dropped.

2025 was the breakout year. Drowning reversed on the charts, hitting No. 1 on the Melon Top 100 and finishing No. 1 on the annual domestic chart. It won back-to-back on SBS Inkigayo for two consecutive weeks. WAITING had already earned him a music broadcast No. 1.

Before Archive. 1, his discography spans four mini-albums: EQUAL (1st), ONLY LOVERS LEFT (3rd), COLORFUL TRAUMA (4th), and OO-LI (5th).

From UNIQ to the big screen

WOODZ debuted in 2014 as a member of boy group UNIQ with the single Falling In Love. He placed 5th on Produce X 101 and promoted with project group X1. His reputation as a live performer grew through appearances on Immortal Songs, Begin Again Open Mic, K-909, and the The Seasons series.

On screen, he played Woojin in the music film Slide Strum Mute, released in February 2026 — his first theatrical film role. He's also been cast as Cheotnnom in the upcoming film Nambul, which has yet to announce a release date.
