List of TVXQ concert tours in Japan

The South Korean pop duo TVXQ, known as Tohoshinki (東方神起, Tōhōshinki) in Japan, have embarked on twelve nation-wide concert tours. Debuting as a five-member vocal pop group in April 2005, Tohoshinki held their first Japanese tour, the Heart, Mind and Soul Tour, in 2006. This was followed by the Five in the Black Tour in 2007 and the T Tour in 2008, the latter being the group's first arena tour and bringing in an estimate of 150,000 fans from 17 shows. From May to July 2009, Tohoshinki held their fourth and last Japanese tour as a quintet, The Secret Code Tour, selling over 300,000 tickets. For the tour's finale, Tohoshinki performed in the Tokyo Dome, making them the third Korean music act, and the first Korean pop group, to do so.[1]

After the departure of members Jejung, Yuchun, and Junsu in 2010, remaining Tohoshinki members Yunho and Changmin did not tour again until January 2012, when they held their first concert tour as a duo, titled the Tone Tour. The tour sold over 550,000 tickets in Japan and grossed over US$73 million, making it the largest overseas concert held by a Korean artist at the time. The duo broke their own record the following year with their sixth Japanese concert tour, the Time Tour, making Tohoshinki the first Korean artist to hold a dome tour in Japan.[2] The tour's two-day finale was held at Japan's largest stadium, the Nissan Stadium, pushing the duo as the first international music act to headline a stadium concert.[3] The Time Tour was the highest-grossing and most-attended concert tour held by a foreign music act in Japan at the time, selling over 850,000 tickets and grossing US$93 million.[4] Tohoshinki broke that record again with their Begin Again: Live Tour in 2018, which made US$110 million from 1.28 million tickets. The finale of the Begin Again Tour was again held at the Nissan Stadium, pushing Tohoshinki as the first foreign music act to headline Nissan Stadium twice.[5] It is the highest-grossing concert tour held by a foreign music act in Japan.[6]

From January 2012 to June 2014, the duo performed in concerts for over 2 million people in Japan, the fastest mobilization by a non-Japanese act.[7]
