South Korean singer-songwriter and actress Bibi has just kick started her first-ever world tour ‘Eve’ – starting with Seoul, she is taking the stage across the US and Canada before making her way back to Asian cities including Hong Kong, Bangkok, Singapore, Osaka, Tokyo, Fukuoka, Taipei, and Jakarta, finally also extending to Australia and New Zealand towards the latter part of this year.

Since her debut in 2019, Bibi has established herself as a strong contender in the Korean hip-hop scene, with a genre-bending sound that blends R&B, indie rock, and funk-pop influences. She unapologetically explores themes of mental distress and self-discovery, and her music video for Derre featured herself in a queer romantic storyline, which is rarely seen in the oft-sanitised mainstream Korean music industry. Bibi’s 2024 single Bam Yang Gang also swiftly became viral for its accompanying challenge of singing the song while eating bamyanggeaeng chestnut jelly.

She has just released her second studio album Eve: Romance in May, so expect to hear bangers like Hongdae R&B, Bluebird, and more performed live. Bibi will take the stage at the AsiaWorld-Expo on Sunday, August 3, with tickets running from $699 to $1,799. The VIP packages will include a special laminate and lanyard, an autographed postcard, early access to merch, access to the pre-show soundcheck party, and a group photo with Bibi herself for VVIPs.

Official fans can get first pick of tickets with the pookïe Membership (Global) pre-sale at 10am on Wednesday, June 4, followed by the Live Nation members pre-sale at 4pm on the same day. Tickets for the general public will then be released from 3pm onwards on June 5.
