Taemin: ~SIRIUS~ 1st Japanese Tour
The Tour
On July 18, SHINee’s Japanese Twitter & Instagram announced that Taemin would be having his first Japanese solo tour beginning 9/21~11/2, later revealing the title of the tour “SIRIUS”. The tour sold out within the fanclub (SHINee World J) ticket application lottery and was very difficult to get tickets to. During the first show, Taemin announced that 6 arena shows would be added (2 additional stops, 3 shows each for a total of 32 shows in 18 cities). Leading up to the first show, lyrics to the 6 new songs were teased on SHINee’s social media.
“[Sirius] is the name of the brightest star. [The tour] was named that so I could make our time together the brightest moment” (@Sweetgravity) – Taemin 180921
After the first show, it was announced via SHINee’s JP social media accounts that the new title song “Eclipse” shown during the concert would be released digitally on 9/26! In total, 6 new songs were shown at the concert: “Into The Rhythm”, “Better Man”, “ECLIPSE”, “MARS”, “Under My Skin”, & “HOLY WATER”. You can view the whole setlist below! Please give Taemin’s concert & new release a lot of support~ ^^ Taemin Fighting~! Let’s make this your brightest moment yet!

Hello! Where can merch from the Sirius tour be purchased by US Shawols?
This is a complicated question ^^; The goods were posted on the JP SMTown store in limited quantities here: https://shop-smtown.jp/ . You would need a shipping/forwarding service like Tenso to purchase from this store because they only ship domestically in Japan. I assume when the tour is over, leftover merch will be available again here. Outside of that, you’re going to have to buy it second hand from places like eBay or find someone who’s going/hosting a group order. Hope this helps~! ^^
