SEVENTEEN unit V8 (Vernon & The8) has successfully wrapped up their first-ever solo live concert and is now bringing that incredible energy straight to Hong Kong! From their very first unit stage, they packed out a massive venue and totally proved their power. Two all-standing days, 15,000 fans V8 held '2026 VERNON THE 8 [V8] LIVE - GOYANG' on the 11th and 12th at KINTEX Hall 1 in Goyang, Gyeonggi. It was the first-ever all-standing format concert by a SEVENTEEN unit, drawing around 15,000 fans over two days. The online livestream also brought in fans from 63 countries and regions worldwide, showing just how massive the love is! From new tracks to solo stages — a packed setlist At the concert, every track from their debut mini album 'V8' was performed, along with the first-ever live stages for The8's Chinese EP tracks 'Friend', 'girlsnboys', and '54321 (Lift Off)'. They also served up a fresh arrangement of 'Bad Influence (Prod. by Pharrell Williams)' from SEVENTEEN's 5th full album, plus fan favorites like 'HIT' and 'Eyes on you'! Both members also brought their own individual solo stages. Vernon pre-released unreleased tracks 'Get Me Off' and 'I'LL BE BACK' alongside 'MIA', while The8 performed '裂痕 (AWAKE)', '8DM', 'Skyfall', '不见了(Love is gone)' and more. The8 even threw in a DJ performance mid-show that had the whole crowd hyped up to the max! "V8 will be back" After the show, V8 shared: "We put so much thought and ideas into creating a new kind of concert experience. Seeing the fans enjoying the stage gave us the confidence that we can do even better. V8 will be back." The heat moves to Hong Kong V8's stages aren't over yet! From the 17th to the 19th, they'll be performing at Asia World-Expo Hall 10 in Hong Kong.
