Key information
Japanese singer-songwriter Yuuri returned to the Taipei Arena on October 9 and 10 for his "YUURI 2026 LIVE IN TAIPEI" concert series. Following his debut performance in Taiwan last year, where he promised to return, the artist fulfilled his commitment by performing two distinct shows for his local fans.
The performances featured a mix of high-energy rock tracks and emotional ballads. Yuuri opened with "Thunderbolt" and included popular songs such as "Frontline," "Curtain Call," and "Leo." To ensure a unique experience for attendees, he adjusted the setlist for each night, culminating in a powerful rendition of his hit "Dried Flowers" accompanied by the audience.
During the show, the 32-year-old singer humorously protested being called "uncle" by fans, insisting they refer to him as "older brother" instead. He also lightheartedly acknowledged the concurrent BIGBANG concert in Taipei, joking that he was grateful fans chose his show, though he expressed a personal interest in seeing the other group as well.
Yuuri shared personal reflections on overcoming life's challenges and expressed gratitude for the support of his Taiwanese audience. He concluded the event by inviting fans to contact him on social media when visiting Japan and asked if he could return to Taipei, signaling his desire for future performances.
