SHINee‘s Shanghai concert makes splash

K-pop sensation SHINee once again electrified fans on Sunday at a concert held in Shanghai, China, the fifth country the idol group visited on its concert tour “SHINee WORLD Ⅲ.” 

At the group’s first solo concert in China’s richest city, SHINee performed 27 songs including a host of hits such as “Ring Ding Dong,” “Dream Girl,” “Sherlock,” and “Lucifer.”

Local fans started to queue up in the early hours of the morning, even in rain, and added special touches to the show, such as singing along to “Green Rain” in perfect Korean and shaking white glow sticks in sync to brighten up the concert hall.   

SHINee, which started its tour in Korea, has visited Mexico, Chile, Argentina and Taiwan before making its way to Shanghai. The members will head to Jakarta on June 22 to continue to meet fans from around the world.
