SHINee's Onew finally announced his first solo world tour after 17 years. Reported via Naver on Thursday, July 3, 2025, the SHINee leader will hold a concert titled " ONEW THE LIVE: PERCENT (%)".
The tour is called “PERCENT” after Onew’s upcoming second full-length album, which will be released on July 15, 2025 at 6 p.m. KST. Meanwhile, the album raises the theme of complementary existence, that life is not always perfect.
But the process of bringing things together is what makes it all meaningful. Furthermore, in the official poster released through all Griffin Entertainment social media , futuristic and artistic visuals are seen with Onew's calm but intense face.
The pixelated design and soft blue color add a digital and introspective impression, in harmony with Onew's music which is known to be soft and touching emotions. His first world tour will visit 16 cities in 3 continents, including Asia, Latin America, and Europe. Here is Onew's tour schedule.
Asia Schedule: August 2–3 – (Seoul), August 16 – (Hong Kong), 18 September – (Bangkok), 4–5 October – (Tokyo), and October 18 – (Kaohsiung). Latin America Schedule: October 30 – (Sao Paulo), November 1 – (Santiago) and November 4 – (Mexico City).
European Schedule: November 9 – (Paris), 11 November – (London), November 14 – (Madrid), November 16 – (Helsinki), November 18 – (Copenhagen), 20 November – (Tilburg), November 25 – (Warsaw) and November 27 – (Berlin)
This is his first world tour after previously having successfully toured Asia and America. The owner of the name Lee Jinki is indeed known as a strong soloist after releasing several albums and has a strong vocal color but. So he never fails to describe various human emotions deeply.
As the title suggests, this concert has many people anticipating Onew's reliable live performance. Because like before, the idol born in 1989 also participated directly in the production of the album "Percent". Starting from songwriting to final production. This shows that he is not only a singer, but also a mature artist and producer.
The Percent concept itself conveys the message that shortcomings are not something to be covered up, but can be part of wholeness if accepted and filled with sincerity. This message is in line with Onew's character who is known to be humble and sincere. High global anticipation also asked Onew to add to his concert schedule.
Moreover, Indonesia has been skipped by Onew's solo schedule for almost 6 years. So many are hoping to hear Onew's songs directly from the albums "Voice", "Dice", "Circle", "Flow", "Connection", and now "Percent".
Not only Onew, Indonesian fans were also observed to have not been visited by SHINee for almost 8 years. So they really hope to be able to at least meet Onew in Jakarta if they can't meet SHINee as a group.
Finally, through the world tour “ONEW THE LIVE: PERCENT (%)”, Onew will once again prove that he is an artist who not only has a beautiful voice, but also has a strong vision and story. This tour will mark a new era in his career that is more mature, honest, and profound than before.
Fans are certainly looking forward to a concert experience that is not only full of music, but also full of meaning. So they hope that Griffin Entertainment will consider adding more cities that do have a loyal Onew fan base. One of them is Jakarta, Indonesia.
