Singer Park Hyo-shin wrapped his first solo concert in about seven years with a total of 90,000 fans in attendance.
On April 4, 5, and 11, Park staged his solo concert “Park Hyo-shin LIVE A & E 2026” at the main stadium of Incheon Munhak Stadium, reuniting with fans who had waited a long time. Despite the large-scale stadium setup of roughly 30,000 seats per show, tickets sold out within about an hour of going on sale, and even the additional seats later opened were snapped up―proof of his still-potent ticket power.
For the final night, special guest Sam Kim amped up the crowd with “Playing Pretend,” “It’s You,” and “Make Up.” Park then opened the show with “HAPPY TOGETHER,” “Shine Your Light,” and “Home,” and debuted stages for “AE” and “Prayer” from his just-released EP A & E, drawing a heated response.
He followed with signature hits like “Snow Flower,” “Breath,” “HERO,” and “Winter Ahead,” plus performances of unreleased tracks including “ALICE,” “The Castle Of Zoltar,” “V,” “Gift,” and “Any Love,” rounding out a rich setlist.
After the show, Park said, “I achieved my dream of standing on a stadium stage 26 years after my debut. Every moment was thanks to you. I wanted to tell you that under the same sky, the love we’ve been looking for is right here.”
There were some early-show hiccups.
Some attendees noted that sound didn’t carry well in certain sections, and the outdoor stadium’s chilly weather affected immersion for parts of the audience. Due to the low temperature, Park briefly left the stage to change outfits mid-show, which some felt disrupted the flow.
Even so, the concert carried major significance as his first solo run in about seven years. The setlist spanning new songs and hits, commanding live vocals, and strong production once again underlined Park Hyo-shin’s musical firepower.
The day after the concert ended, Park kept the momentum going by releasing the music video for “Any Love,” one of the double title tracks from his EP A & E, on his official social media channels.
