RIIZE has set a record for entering the Tokyo Dome in Japan for the shortest time among K-pop boy groups.
Rise met with 33,000 spectators on September 13-15 when all the first world tour performances at Tokyo National Yoyogi Stadium's first gymnasium were sold out. At the end of the first day of the performance, which was the birthday of member SUNGCHAN, the Tokyo Dome Special Edition performance was announced on February 21-23, 2026, which received an explosive response.
In particular, Rise will perform at Tokyo Dome for three days with a solo concert in about two years and five months since its debut in September 2023, proving the popularity of Rise's 「ONE TOP」, which shows strong audience mobilization both at home and abroad, as it is the shortest K-pop boy group's record of entering the Tokyo Dome.
In response, major Japanese media, including Sankei Sports, Sports Nippon, Sports Hochi, Nikkan Sports, and Daily Sports, made headlines for the news of Rise and paid high attention, reporting that "the decision of the super-fast Tokyo Dome, this is the Rise", "The Rise name was engraved on Japan's largest concert hall", "It is a feat that exceeds the previous record".

Earlier, Rise was the first K-pop boy group to debut after 2023 according to the Japan Record Association, with 'Get A Guitar' (Get A Guitar) receiving 'Gold' certification in the streaming sector, and the Japanese single 'Lucky' (Lucky) also winning 'Platinum' certification and the first full-length album 'ODYSSEY' (Odisei) winning 'Gold' certification, so expectations are high for its growth to accelerate in the future thanks to the local fans' firepower.
Rise, who is continuing his first world tour RIIZING LOUD(Rising LOUD), will visit Bangkok Impact Arena on September 20-21 for his next performance.
