PENTAGON celebrated ten years together in front of a sold-out Seoul crowd. The group wrapped their 10th Anniversary Tour '101010' (Triple Ten) shows at Blue Square's WON Banking Hall on October 9 and 10.

That date was also streamed live online for fans worldwide. Sold out immediately STARNEWS reported in September that the Seoul shows sold out as soon as tickets went on sale, according to the group's agency, NAKED. Both sessions of the Tokyo concert on October 3 also sold out. "Even when we heard the concert had sold out, we thought it couldn't be true. But UNIVERSE really filled this venue," the members said, addressing their fandom by name. From 100 minutes to 200 The show was planned to run for 100 minutes. Thanks to the crowd's response, PENTAGON kept adding encores, and the concert stretched to about 200 minutes, allkpop says.

Yeo One pointed fans to the dance break after the bridge and to the lyrics, which carry what the group wanted to say to UNIVERSE after three years away. Ten years on The members were candid about the passing decade. "Everyone's cartilage and joints have 'matured' a lot, so seeing us creak and crack made me tear up," Shinwon joked. Jinho recalled writing a pre-debut lyric that asked, "Will I still be dancing?" and said: "I really am still dancing now." "I'm just happy that the team hasn't fallen apart and that we've made it this far," Kino said.
