Sold-Out Yoyogi Concerts Mark a Triumphant Finale to Japan Tour

The newest stars of the NCT universe, NCT WISH, have officially cemented their status as a rising force in the Japanese music market.

On January 19, 2026, it was reported that the group successfully concluded their highly anticipated Japan tour with a series of spectacular, sold-out performances at the iconic Yoyogi National Gymnasium in Tokyo.

The “WISH FULL-FILL” tour finale served as a powerful testament to the group’s rapid growth and massive popularity, drawing thousands of fans (NCTzen) who gathered to witness the culmination of the group’s first major touring chapter.

​A Sold-Out Milestone at an Iconic Venue

​The Yoyogi National Gymnasium is a venue steeped in musical history, and for a rookie group like NCT WISH to sell out multiple nights there is a significant achievement.

The tour, which spanned several major cities across Japan, saw an overwhelming demand for tickets from the very beginning.

By the time the group reached Tokyo for the grand finale, the atmosphere was electric.

​The sell-out status of these concerts highlights the group’s strong domestic footing in Japan—a key market for the NCT brand.

The members—Sion, Riku, Yushi, Jaehee, Ryo, and Sakuya—delivered a performance that combined youthful energy with the polished precision that fans have come to expect from SM Entertainment artists.

The success of this tour indicates that NCT WISH has successfully transitioned from “newcomers” to a headlining act capable of filling major arenas.

​High-Octane Performances and Emotional Connections

​Throughout the concert, NCT WISH showcased a diverse setlist that highlighted their versatility. The show was a sensory feast, featuring:

• ​Dynamic Title Tracks: The group performed high-energy versions of their hits, including “WISH” and “Songbird,” which were met with deafening cheers and synchronized fan chants.
• ​Special Stages: To the delight of the local audience, the members performed several tracks in Japanese, showcasing their seamless bilingual capabilities and their commitment to their Japanese fanbase.
• ​Unit and Solo Highlights: The concert allowed individual members to shine through specialized segments, proving that each member brings a unique color to the group’s overall harmony.

​The production value of the Yoyogi concerts was world-class, featuring state-of-the-art lighting, intricate stage designs, and pyrotechnics that complemented the group’s sharp choreography.

However, it was the emotional “ment” (talking) segments that resonated most with fans. The members expressed their deep gratitude for the support they received during the tour, with several members becoming visibly emotional as they looked out at the “pearl neo champagne” ocean of light sticks.

​A Successful Conclusion to a Global Year

​The conclusion of the Japan tour marks the end of a whirlwind year for NCT WISH. Since their official debut, the group has been on a steep upward trajectory, winning rookie awards and dominating brand reputation rankings.

Their success in Japan is particularly strategic, as it strengthens the global NCT ecosystem by providing a dedicated anchor in one of the world’s largest music industries.

​Industry analysts suggest that the sold-out Yoyogi shows are a precursor to even larger activities.

With their popularity soaring, there is already talk of a larger Asian tour or even a potential stadium-scale event in the near future.

The “WISH FULL-FILL” tour has not only fulfilled the wishes of the fans but has also proven that the group is more than ready for the global stage.

Reports indicate that the group is already in the early stages of preparing for a new album release in the first half of 2026.

Having gained immense stage experience and confidence from this tour, their next comeback is expected to feature a more mature sound and even more ambitious concepts.

​For now, NCT WISH can celebrate a job well done. By conquering Yoyogi and ending their Japan tour on such a high note, they have sent a clear message to the industry: the “WISH” era is just beginning, and they are here to stay.
