STAYC 2023-2024 TEENFRESH TOUR

The tour kicked off on September 23, 2023. Even the opening song “SO BAD” was worth the ticket alone. Seeing STAYC in person stunned first-time fans, while longtime supporters broke down emotionally in their own ways. It was their first solo concert, launched 2 years and 10 months after debut.

“YOUNG LUV,” which ranked third in MTV’s Best K-pop B-side of 2022, was one of the most crowd-hyped songs.

During STAYC’s second show in Seoul, Sieun said, “After the first night ended, I felt confident I could keep doing this.” At the end of STAYC’s Seoul show, Seeun asked fans, “Please don’t forget us while we’re away on tour.” A line from “Love Fool,” a track from STAYC’s second album STAYDOM, was used as the slogan for the Seoul concert.

The heavy bass in STAYC’s hit song “ASAP” stood out during the Seoul show, where a live band backed the performance.

When STAYC asked fans about their MBTI, there seemed to be more quiet I-types than loud E-types. Yet in shows across multiple countries, fans sang along loudly and tirelessly—with no trace of shyness. During STAYC’s U.S. tour, Sieun repeatedly said, “We love our fans no matter their age or gender.” It was a response to haters who criticized fans for how old they were or what gender they were. In Dallas, STAYC accidentally wore Glasgow Rangers uniforms instead of Texas Rangers jerseys. The mix-up was covered by outlets like The New York Times, BBC, and Goal.com

“BEAUTIFUL MONSTER” reflects STAYC’s purest, truest self. In Seoul and the U.S., it was performed in a reggae style, while in Mexico—followed by shows in Asia and Europe—they presented the original version.

During the show, fans in Taiwan dedicated a video to STAYC and held up cards spelling out the message “Be mine.” In their tribute video, fans in Singapore called STAYC “the best girl group in the world.”

The TEENFRESH tour ran from late 2023 to early 2024. STAYC worked hard to expand into new markets, while consistently sharing short content so Korean fans could stay connected. This schedule was never evidence for the propaganda claiming STAYC had neglected their Korean fans.
