Big Ocean Wrap Two-Month US and Europe Tour in London, Finally Singing 'Make It Up To You' for European Fans
Big Ocean, the K-pop group of hearing-impaired members, ended their fall tour of more than 10 US and European cities in London on Nov. 3, Parasta Entertainment said.
Big Ocean have kept a promise to their European fans. The group of hearing-impaired members wrapped their roughly two-month fall tour of the US and Europe with a concert in London on Nov. 3 (local time), Parasta Entertainment announced on Nov. 13 (KST), according to Yonhap and STARNEWS.
The tour opened in New York on Sept. 13 and visited more than 10 cities, STARNEWS reported, with the New York and Orlando shows selling out. Big Ocean held solo concerts in cities including Chicago, Charlotte, Denver and Phoenix, performed at Korean festivals in Atlanta, Los Angeles and Houston, then crossed to Europe for Cologne, Paris and London.
The European leg carried extra weight after the group's European shows earlier this year were canceled. The members released the digital single 'Make It Up To You' for fans who had waited, and performed it live on this tour. "Since our first-half shows were canceled, simply returning to Europe was already very significant for us," Big Ocean said through their agency. "We finally got to sing 'Make It Up To You,' which we made for the fans who waited, in front of European fans, so it felt like we had kept our promise."
