All seven of the group's members also gave individual performances including Alexander and Kevin Woo singing "Finally" and Soohyun giving his rendition of a song from popular Japanese band Exile.

"It felt great to know that so many fans showed up for our first concert in Japan. It was great to see our fans sing along with us and we hope to do our best for our other shows", the members of U-Kiss were quoted as saying.
