NCT's Mark has wrapped up his inaugural solo showcase tour in Japan to a positive reception. The tour, named 'The Firstfruit SHOWCASE LIVE in JAPAN', spanned from May 15th to 19th KST and featured shows in Yokohama, Nagoya, and Osaka. Tickets for all three shows were completely sold out during the sales period from April 19th to 22nd, showcasing his significant drawing power.

The final performance was held in Nagoya, where Mark treated the audience to songs from his solo album 'The Firstfruit', such as "Righteous", "Raincouver", and "Too Much". The audience was especially captivated by his rendition of the title track "1999", with fans enthusiastically joining in during the performance. Mark returned to the stage for an encore, sharing a touching group performance with the audience.

Mark expressed his gratitude for the support he received from fans during his solo activities, stating, "It feels like I'm nurturing 'The Firstfruit' together with Czennie (fanclub name). Every interaction and expression from the fans boosts my spirits." He promised to continue delivering great music and performances, appreciating the fans' continuous cheers and participation.

Despite wrapping up his solo tour, Mark is set to join NCT 127 for future activities. He is scheduled to perform with the group at Tokyo Dome on May 21–22 as part of their fourth world tour finale, 'NEO CITY – THE MOMENTUM'.
