Singer LIM YOUNGWOONG drew about 95,000 fans to Goyang Stadium over three days.

Held for three days from the 4th to the 6th at the main stadium of Goyang Stadium, LIM YOUNGWOONG's 2026 concert "IM HERO - THE STADIUM 2" opened with a VCR capturing LIM YOUNGWOONG's growth over the past 10 years through the love of his fans in celebration of his 10th debut anniversary.

Kicking off the opening stage with remade debut song "Hate You", "Love Always Runs Away", and "Grains of Sand", LIM YOUNGWOONG greeted the audience, saying, "Hero Generation (fandom name), make some noise. I've prepared a lot, so I hope you enjoy it."

He then filled the diverse stage with steadily loved tracks like "Eternal Moment", "Rainbow", "I Love You", and "Elevator". Stage productions such as water screens, a moving cart for close interaction with the audience, and a turntable lift added to the spectacle.

Songs from the special digital album "IM HERO 10", set to be released on the 8th, including "Baila", the title track "ToTo", and "New York" were also revealed for the first time on this day, drawing an explosive response. The VCR "Gourmet World" featuring actors Hyun Bong-shik, Yoon Byung-hee, and comedian Hong Yoon-hwa brought laughter, while band performances, a chorus from Gyeongbok University, and the dance team's energy enriched the stage.

The highlight of the concert was a drone show combined with large-scale fireworks and LIM YOUNGWOONG's narration. The story of Hero Generation expressed in light and LIM YOUNGWOONG finding that light unfolded via drones, with the phrase "My Love, My Hero Generation" embroidering the sky, leaving a deep resonance with the audience.

LIM YOUNGWOONG shared his thoughts, saying, "The 10 years with Hero Generation were truly precious and grateful. I want to spend the next 10 years together as well, and I will keep singing hard for a long time." Including this concert, LIM YOUNGWOONG has recorded a cumulative audience of about 1 million people from 2022 to the present.
