For the last month or so, U-Kiss has been in Japan to prepare for their official Japanese debut. They will begin by releasing the licensed version of their Korean album "Bran New KISS" in Japan on August 24, which will include a DVD with clips of their time in Japan; they will follow up with their first Japanese single, to be released in December of this year.
U-Kiss performed at
KBS Music Bank in Tokyo late last week. The boys are currently touring Japan and holding
six fan meetings; they attended Zepp Tokyo on the 18th, Zepp Nagoya on July 24, and will be at Zepp Osaka on July 30th. Apparently,
both the Tokyo and Osaka fanmeetings sold out. In about a month, they will return to Korea; their
second full-length album is set to be released in September, and it will be the second release with new members Hoon and AJ.
On July 25, entertainment agency NH Media confirmed that Japan will not be the only country to see showcases by U-Kiss, as the group plans to hold concerts in North America and Asia.
A representative from NH Media revealed that U-Kiss will hold performances in the United States, Canada, Japan, Thailand, Singapore, and China. The concerts are to be held "hopefully at the end of this year, but if not, during the first half of next year."
Said the representative, "We are talking to the organizers right now to set the dates, but it'll take some time for it to be announced because of the boys' activities in Japan and Korea."
