Tokyo Goes Wild for tripleS
The self-proclaimed “idol of all possibilities,” tripleS, just made an unforgettable splash in Japan. On June 19 and 20, all 24 members of the hyper-project girl group lit up Tokyo’s Kanadevia Hall during their first-ever full-unit concert, A LIVE 25 in Tokyo.
With over 4,000 local WAVs (their official fandom name) in attendance across the two-day show, the performance was more than just a milestone—it was a memory-maker. From their earliest sub-unit debut as Acid Angel from Asia to the current fully assembled powerhouse, the group pulled out all the stops for a non-stop spectacle showcasing their genre-blending musical evolution.
From 0 to 24: The Power of the Full Unit
Fans witnessed the full spectrum of tripleS’s multidimensional identity, with unique sub-unit combinations creating ever-shifting stages. Of course, the real showstopper was the overwhelming energy of all 24 members performing together—the kind of synchronized chaos only a group this ambitious can pull off.
The roar from Japanese fans following each performance proved one thing: this isn’t just another K-pop concert. It’s a phenomenon in the making.
Surprise Drop: Japanese Sub-Unit tripleS ∞! (Hatch!) Is Here
Just when fans thought the night couldn’t get better, tripleS dropped a surprise no one saw coming. The group announced the debut of their Japanese sub-unit, tripleS ∞! (Hatch!), with their first EP SecretHimitsuBimil dropping on October 1. The title playfully combines the words for “secret” in English, Japanese (himitsu), and Korean (bimil)—a clever Easter egg for multilingual fans.
The concert venue practically shook with excitement. Talk about a gift that keeps on giving.
Breaking Records and Going Global
tripleS is already riding high in 2025. Their latest album ASSEMBLE25 shattered expectations with over 510,000 first-week sales, setting a personal best. They’ve also claimed first-place trophies on multiple Korean music shows, earning their place as a next-generation ‘it’ girl group.
What’s next? A globe-spanning world tour, naturally. Kicking off in September, the ‘@%(Alpha Percent)’ tour will hit nine cities across the U.S., featuring members Kim Yuyeon, Kotone, Nien, Lynn, Jeong Hayeon, Park Sion, Kim Chaewon, and Ji Yeon.
Final Take
“K-pop’s most experimental girl group just proved their global power,” one fan tweeted post-concert. And if Tokyo was any indication, tripleS is poised to dominate every dimension they exist in—from Seoul to Shibuya to San Francisco.
