[EPN NPNOW Reporter Seo Hye-bin] ITZY wrapped the first international stops of their third world tour with successful shows in Melbourne and Sydney.
ITZY staged their ITZY 3RD WORLD TOUR at John Cain Arena in Melbourne on April 17 and at the TikTok Entertainment Center in Sydney on April 19. Local fans turned out in force, giving the tour a strong start. The members won over audiences with dazzling performances and commanding stage presence.
They opened the set with \"Focus\" from their new mini-album TUNNEL VISION and performed hits such as \"WANNABE,\" \"GOLD,\" and \"Mafia In the Morning.\" Each member — Lia, Yuna, Yeji, Chaeryeong, and Ryujin — also delivered solo stages. The crowd erupted in cheers during \"THAT'S A NO NO.\"
During the concerts, ITZY interacted with fans in English and answered the local chant, \"Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! Oi, Oi, Oi!,\" creating a warmer rapport with the audience.
At the Melbourne show on April 17, the group surprised fans by leading a birthday song for Ryujin.
ITZY expressed their gratitude, saying, \"Thanks to you, we got our overseas shows off to a great start. When we sang 'Mirror,' fans lit their phone flashes and it looked like a beautiful night sky. Thank you for giving us an experience we'll never forget.\"
With the TUNNEL VISION album, ITZY has once again proven their status as performance queens.
The popularity of \"THAT'S A NO NO\" and its dance challenge drew widespread attention. ITZY will continue the world tour with stops in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Kaohsiung, Bangkok, Manila and other cities.
