K-pop boy band VIXX is heading to Europe.
The six-member act is gearing up for its meet and greet “VIXX Live & Meet in Europe 2016” in Milan, Italy on Saturday and Paris, France on Sunday. This will mark the group’s first European tour since its global showcase, “The Milky Way,” which took place from 2013 to 2014.
Following the fan meetings, VIXX will be performing at “2016 Feel Korea in Kazakhstan,” a two-day festival dedicated to promoting Korean pop culture taking place in Astana, Kazakhstan from Sept. 23-25.
