B2ST held a fan meeting in Tokyo the day after an earthquake, and managed to draw in an astounding 12,000 fans.
On July 18th, Cube Entertainment stated that there was an earthquake with a magnitude of 5.5 that struck the Tokyo-Ryogoku area, but despite initial concerns, a great mass of fans turned up for the event, which reportedly went very smoothly.
B2ST opened their fan meeting with a ’special’ strong performance. No different from a Korean concert, Japanese fans sang along to “Soom“, “Shock“, “Beautiful“, “Fiction“, and many other tracks in Korean and also shouted cheer slogans.
Aside from their live performances, B2ST also held a talk session with their fans. They even called some fans on stage and gave them hand-drawn portraits.
Cube also reported that stocks of B2ST-related merchandise sold out like wildfire, as fans queued up since the early morning to grab the best seats and items.
B2ST are currently traveling to six different Asian countries to hold fan meetings with an estimated 40,000 fans. Having wrapped up a successful stop in Japan, the boys will move onto China for July 20th and then Taiwan for the 22nd-23rd.
