DAY6 Celebrates 10th Anniversary with Spectacular Performance and New Album Preview

During their 10th anniversary concert, DAY6's Wonpil confidently addressed the audience, asking if there were any non-fans present. He assured them, "On your way home, you'll find yourself thinking, 'What is it about DAY6 that keeps drawing me in?' and soon, you'll become our fan." His bandmate Sungjin playfully teased him, saying, "You did a monodrama by yourself, didn't you?" which brought laughter to the crowd.

DAY6 kicked off their 'DAY6 10th Anniversary Tour 'The DECADE'' on the 31st at Goyang Sports Complex. The band opened the show with their hit songs 'A Page,' 'Melting,' and 'HAPPY,' dazzling the audience with confetti and fireworks. Under Sungjin's lead, they greeted their fans and officially started the performance.

Dowoon expressed his excitement, saying, "The outdoor stage is amazing. It's so hot. We're connecting with My Day fans worldwide through Beyond Live." Young K added in English, "Global fans, let's all have a great time together."

DAY6 premiered 'Disco Day,' a track from their upcoming fourth studio album 'The DECADE,' set to release on November 5th. The song features a nostalgic disco beat with lively bass and synth sounds. They also performed unreleased tracks like 'Dream Bus,' 'INSIDE OUT,' and 'Our Season,' capturing the audience's attention.

The standout feature of the night was the members' vocal prowess. Young K particularly impressed with his flawless execution of a challenging high-pitched melody during 'The Power of Love.'

After performing 'Happy Days,' Young K asked the audience if they recognized any unfamiliar songs, to which Wonpil responded, "That was 'Disco Day' from our upcoming album. It's bouncy and has recreational elements. We briefly introduced it yesterday, but today everyone seems to know it already."

Recreating the clapping part from 'Disco Day,' the members marveled, "It's not even released yet," as the audience enthusiastically participated for about 10 seconds without any instrumental backing.

Following performances of 'Marathon,' 'Maybe Tomorrow,' and 'Zombie,' Young K looked up at the sky and remarked, "The sun has set. Without a ceiling, we can see the sky. The cicadas are really loud. Maybe they want to be My Day too."

Wonpil expressed gratitude, saying, "Celebrating our 10th anniversary is thanks to all of you here. It feels like a festival created by us and My Day, something unforgettable. Thank you for gathering here."

Towards the end of the concert, a VCR played DAY6's title tracks in reverse chronological order, leading to their debut song 'Congratulations.' Wonpil explained, "The VCR took us back in time to our debut song. If that represents our past, 'Dream Bus' represents us now. It's been a while since we pre-released a song like this. Please listen to our fourth album."

Young K reflected, "The setlist allowed us to look back on the past 10 years. Our goal was to include title tracks from all our albums. We wanted to take a moment to reflect." He added, "I think we've lived well. Despite various challenges, I feel I'm living a happy life on stage. Thank you all. I want to continue this journey together and will work hard to bring happiness."

Sungjin shared his thoughts on the 10th anniversary, saying, "We're a team that simply loves music. You make us look good. We take pride in having no songs to discard from the past 10 years. We've worked hard, but success isn't guaranteed. My Day has always been our driving force. We'll keep going as long as we can breathe. We'll return your overwhelming love, so please accept it gradually."

Wonpil acknowledged, "We know there are negative perceptions about us as an idol band. We wanted to counter that by creating good music and performances. Even when everyone doubted us, you believed in us. We've all done well and will continue to do so."

Finally, Dowoon expressed his gratitude to fans, saying, "We're not always virtuous, but we'll strive to move towards goodness as much as we've been loved. You made us and this stage. Be proud."

DAY6 held their Goyang concert, part of their 10th anniversary tour, on the 30th and 31st. They sold out all seats during the general sale on the 11th. Since their debut in 2015, they have steadily increased the size of their venues, from Yes24 Muv Hall to KSPO DOME in May. Notably, they became the first Korean band to perform at Gocheok Sky Dome, KSPO DOME, and Goyang Sports Complex consecutively.

DAY6 will release their new studio album 'The DECADE' and its title tracks 'Dream Bus' and 'INSIDE OUT' on various music platforms at 6 PM on November 5th.
