[????=??? ??] BIGBANG “MADE” world tour’s concerts to be held in the States were named as “Must-see fall 2015 concerts”.

On the 25 this month (local time), American FUSE TV posted an article titled “27 Must-See Fall 2015 Concerts” which included BIGBANG “MADE” world tour’s concerts to be held in the States as one of them. Other than BIGBANG concerts, concert of world’s top singers including Janet Jackson, Madonna, Ricky Martin, and R. Kelly were included in the list, drawing big attention from music fans.

FUST TV shed spotlight on BIGBANG focusing on their  mega-scale second America tour to be held in the birthplace of pop music and the team’s popularity in the country, saying, “…and their new Made tour will mark their second North American arena tour—a first for any Korean act—…” FUST TV went on to express its expectations for the BIGBANG tour, stating, “Not only will the band have a whole new album’s worth of material to bring fans (including recent standout singles like “Loser,” “Bang Bang Bang” and “Sober”), but their signature spectacle show looks to be even more explosive than their 2012 Alive Tour—which will be tough to beat given what we saw at that one.”

BIGBANG’s second tour in the States is held three years after “ALIVE GALAXY TOUR” held in 2012 in LA and New Jersey. Beginning from Las Vegas concert , BIGBANG will meet American fans in five concerts in four cities including Los Angeles , Anaheim  and Newark, New Jersey,  and 11. 

The American tour of BIGBANG’s “ALIVE GALAXY” held in November, 2012, was listed in New York Times’ “2012 Best Concerts” selected by New York Times in December that year, to prove worldwide popularity of the team’s performance.

Meanwhile, as BIGBANG has now successfully wrapped up their concert in Hangzhou, China, drawing 21,000 fans, they will continue with the China tour to have a concert in Changsa on the 28 and in Chongqing on the 30. Then, the team will continue with the tour to meet 1.4 million fans in 70 concerts in 15 countries including the United States, Canada, Australia, Mexico, etc.
