[OSENWORLD] YUTA of NCT cements his place as a true rockstar.
The Japanese artist takes his first solo concert tour, YUTA LIVE TOUR 2025 – PERSONA, across Japan to sold-out crowds, proving his commanding presence beyond the idol scene.
After opening the tour in Tokyo on October 2, YUTA successfully wrapped up shows in Kyoto (Oct. 11–12) and Sapporo (Oct. 18–19). Each stop showcases a different facet of his artistry — dynamic, raw, and fiercely personal.
On stage, YUTA delivered electrifying live performances of Off The Mask, Twisted Paradise, When I’m Not Around, Butterfly, Prisoner, and Bad Euphoria, blending rock intensity with his unmistakable charisma.
With heavy riffs, cinematic lighting, and explosive choreography, he displayed both his musical range and emotional depth, earning thunderous applause from thousands of fans.
The singer also surprised audiences by unveiling songs from his upcoming first full-length album PERSONA, including the title track EMBER, alongside Get Out of My Mind, Knock Knock, If We Lose It All Tonight, and To Love Someone.
With its fiery rock sound and introspective lyrics, PERSONA paints an honest self-portrait of YUTA stepping out from behind the mask and into his true self.
As anticipation builds, YUTA is set to make his long-awaited debut at Japan’s legendary Budokan on January 21 — a symbolic milestone underscoring his surging popularity and growing influence at home.
Following the album’s release on October 26, he will continue his tour in Fukuoka on October 31, carrying the energy of PERSONA to fans nationwide.
YUTA’s first full album PERSONA will be available on all major music platforms on October 26 at midnight (JST).
With his live tour blazing across Japan, YUTA isn’t just performing — he’s revealing who he truly is, one riff and one roar at a time.
