Under the title ‘SOL JAPAN TOUR 2014’ (working title), he will be travelling across 3 cities for 6 concerts (Aug 12-13 Osaka, Aug 17-18 Yokohama & Aug 23-24 Fukuoka).

In an interview last year, TAEYANG said, “I want to do any performances, no matter what it is. I don’t mind if it is small. I wouldn’t mind singing on a cardboard box on the street,” showing much enthusiasm for a live performance. His Japan concert is building much expectations as the performances will filled with his more mature and diverse music released for the first time in 4 years, as well as his love for live performances. TAEYANG’s eagerness to “identify with the fans at a close distance” contributed greatly to venue selection. Fans, who feel the same, are evermore competitive in booking the tickets. Before releasing his first Japan solo debut album on Aug 13, TAEYANG will unveil the original Korean version of “RISE” on June 18 on major Japanese music sites.

Upon the disclosure of “Eyes, Nose, Lips”, it has not only taken the No.1 on the real-time charts and daily charts of 10 major music-streaming websites of Korea, but also has been sweeping the top place on the R&B/SOUL album chart of the United States, U.K. Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, as well as the top rank on iTunes overseas album chart of Brunei, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Macao, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, and Vietnam. It has also taken the 23rd place on the United States’ iTunes album chart, demonstrating a strong momentum in foreign countries, too. “STAY WITH ME” was partly composed, written, and featured by G-DRAGON and TAEYANG’s sentimental vocal and G-DRAOGN’s sensational rapping create a perfect harmony and synergy in the song. G-DRAGON has already helped TAEYANG by composing and writing TAEYANG’s solo track “RINGA LINGA” last year, and now, he is playing the role of TAEYANG’s supporter once again by not only composing and writing “STAY WITH ME” but also standing on TAEYANG’s comeback stage together with him. TAEYANG has always shown an unrivaled charisma and captivating performance on the stage of his solo tracks including “WHERE U AT”, “I NEED A GIRL”, “Don’t Cheat On Me”, and “RINGA LINGA”. So, music fans are paying keen attention now to what new appeal TAEYANG will display on the stage of his new album, which expresses TAEYANG’s outstanding strength as a vocalist well. 2014. 6. 5.

I believe that a lot of people will like [my music].” He then addressed his MV, “It was one-take filming, so we filmed twice, once when the sun set and once when the sun rose . . . The video we first filmed is completed. The woman in the picture in the MV is Min Hyo Rin.
