The iconic co-ed K-pop group KARD celebrated its 8th debut anniversary with fans in a dazzling atmosphere.
On July 19, KARD held its concert “KARD 2025 World Tour ‘DRIFT’ in Seoul” at Yes24 Live Hall in Seoul.
This “DRIFT” concert marked KARD’s first solo performance in Seoul in nearly five years, and it took place on the very day of its 8th debut anniversary, July 19, giving the event even more special meaning. The group opened the show with “Touch,” the title track from its 8th mini album “DRIFT”, delivering a performance that was both mesmerizing and electrifying. They then kept the momentum going with songs like “Icky,” “Tell my momma,” “Ring the alarm” and more, steadily raising the energy in the venue.
Reuniting with its Korean fans after a long wait, KARD offered a broad setlist that spanned from their early debut tracks “Oh NaNa,” “Hola hola,” “Don’t recall,” to more recent releases like “Top down,” “Pivot,” “Betcha,” and “Before we go.” They performed all the tracks from their latest mini album “DRIFT” live, showcasing eight years of musical growth.
Beyond the performances, KARD also prepared several interactive segments for fans, such as “BETCHA! KARD QUIZ!”, an “OX” quiz about the group members, and “TOUCH: KARD SELF RANKING,” a nostalgic segment where the members ranked and reminisced over memories from the past eight years. These well-placed moments provided the audience with a rich and memorable experience.
At the end of their successful solo concert, KARD expressed their heartfelt gratitude:
“Dear Hidden KARD (the fandom name), thank you for staying by our side these past eight years and for always being our source of strength. In return, we’ll continue to be a solid presence by your side. We love you.”
With Seoul as the starting point, KARD officially kicks off its “DRIFT” world tour, launching into a new chapter of its global career.
