Tomorrow X Together's Beomgyu's first mixtape 'Panic', filled with warm comfort, has touched the hearts of global fans.
The mixtape 'Panic', released by Beomgyu on the 27th at 6 PM, reached number one on the iTunes 'Top Songs' chart in 11 countries/regions including Japan and Russia by 9 AM on the 28th, and ranked in the charts of a total of 43 countries/regions including the United States and the United Kingdom. It also peaked at 10th and 13th on the 'Worldwide iTunes Songs' and 'European iTunes Songs' charts, respectively.
'Panic' is an original song with a rock band sound that encapsulates Beomgyu's musical color and story, garnering significant attention even before its release. This interest was proven as the song charted in the YouTube trending music in 8 countries/regions including Korea (24th), Japan (13th), Singapore (18th), and New Zealand (23rd). Additionally, shortly after its release, related hashtags trended at number 3 on X (formerly Twitter) worldwide.
The popularity of 'Panic' was particularly notable in Japan. After entering the real-time chart 'Song Top 100' of the major local music site Line Music at 42nd place, it rapidly climbed to reach the highest rank of 2nd place by 11 PM on the day of its release. Furthermore, it entered the daily chart of 'Song Top 100' at 97th place just 6 hours after the song was released on March 27.
With 'Panic', Beomgyu conveys warm comfort to the youth of his generation. The song carries a message encouraging listeners not to remain in a dark and cold world but to take steps forward together. Along with his cheerful image, Beomgyu is also known for his rich sensitivity, often referred to as someone who embodies the emotions of '3 AM and 3 PM coexisting'.
The members of Tomorrow X Together are also supporting the 'Beomgyu sentiment'. They shared a photo of a dandelion reminiscent of the digital cover of 'Panic' on social media, creating a warm atmosphere.
Meanwhile, Tomorrow X Together is successfully conducting their world tour 'ACT: PROMISE EP. 2'. They began their European tour in Barcelona on the 20th, and will meet audiences in Paris on the 30th and Amsterdam on April 1, after passing through London and Berlin. They are delivering performances worthy of the term 'Stage Teller' with upgraded production, delicate storytelling, and stunning performances.
