The Ode to You World Tour (stylized as Seventeen World Tour Ode to You) was the second world concert tour headlined by South Korean boy group Seventeen, supporting their third studio album An Ode. The tour began on August 30, 2019, at the KSPO Dome in Seoul, South Korea, and concluded on February 8, 2020, at Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay, Philippines, having been cut short by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Background

On June 24, 2019, Seventeen announced their second world tour would be titled Ode to You, beginning with three dates in Seoul. An additional nine dates in Japan was announced five days later.[1] The group announced a second Asian leg on August 27,[2] a North American leg on October 19,[3] and a European leg on December 13.[4]

The tour started on August 30, 2019, in Seoul, South Korea, and concluded on February 8, 2020, in Pasay, Philippines. Although it was originally planned to conclude in March, multiple dates in the second Asian leg, alongside the entire European leg, were cancelled as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.[5] Additionally, a concert scheduled for October 12, 2019, in Nagoya, Japan, was cancelled due to Typhoon Hagibis.[6]

Hit The Road, a behind-the-scenes docuseries of the tour, was released on YouTube starting on May 15, 2020.[7] The series was praised for offering insight into the stressful aspects of the K-pop industry and touring.[8] [9] A recording of the Seoul performance was also released on DVD in January 2020.[10]

Reception

In a review for K-Pop Herald, Hong Dam-young applauded the group for going "above and beyond" for their fans, noting that the "born entertainers were showered with sweat, but their glowing faces showed that they were truly enjoying being onstage."[11]
