Jin’s Encore will mark the grand finale of his first solo tour. The shows are scheduled for October 31 and November 1, 2025, at Incheon Munhak Stadium. In a recent interview with Newsen, the BTS member revealed that the encore concerts will feature new medley arrangements, nostalgic tracks he hasn’t sung in years, and special performances exclusively prepared for this event.
