On April 13th, TREASURE brought their highly anticipated US Tour to a powerful and emotional close at the YouTube Theater in Los Angeles. The final stop delivered a genre-bending spectacle as the 10-member group showcased high-energy choreography backed by a live rock band and filled the night with sincere fan interactions that left the crowd of TEUME (short for Treasure Maker) exhilarated and deeply moved.
Taking the stage in sleek blue leather jackets and black jeans, TREASURE began with ‘JIKJIN,’ starting the night with an intense and electrifying track. The group then transitioned to ‘BONA BONA,’ a rap-heavy song that exemplified the members’ hard-hitting energy. During “I LOVE YOU,” the group charmed fans with a heartfelt “I just want to say I love you” before transitioning into a dynamic chorus that had the entire theater jumping along.
Throughout the night, TREASURE engaged in multiple talking segments, expressing excitement and gratitude to finally meet their U.S. TEUMEs in person. “It’s so hot today,” they joked, before diving into heartfelt comments. HYUNSUK told the audience, “We have prepared so much for you today.” YOSHI added, “Who’s excited for tonight?” while ASAHI, DOYOUNG, and JEONGWOO echoed the emotional tone of this long-awaited evening and sharing that the group has special stages planned for the night. JUNKYU added a lighthearted flare by singing “hello, hello, hello”, a nod to their song ‘HELLO,’ after stating he hopes to meet fans more often.
Next, the concert featured special unit stages, highlighting the group’s versatility. ASAHI and HARUTO’s ‘THANK YOU’ brought upbeat rock anthem vibes and high audience interactions, with both members running across the stage to reach as many fans as possible. Next, the T5 unit, consisting of JIHOON, JUNKYU, JAEHYUK, DOYOUNG, and JUNGHWAN, delivered a groovy dance performance with dramatic flair. The show transitioned to the rap unit, HYUNSUK, HARUTO, and YOSHI. HYUNSUK introduced their segment with “ladies and gentlemen, boys, and girls, welcome to the show’ before the trio ignited the stage with ‘G.O.A.T’ and ‘VolKno,’ combining old-school hip hop beats with a commanding dance break.
The setlist continued with crowd favorites like ‘MMM,’ ‘YELLOW,’ and ‘SARURU’ which featured a shift to lighter pop rock elements and costume changes into white shirts with sparkle and diamond details and light denim jeans. TEUMEs clapped and sang along throughout the songs, and the segment came to a close with the members jumping around on stage and singing “la la la.”
TREASURE brought the crowd to its feet with fan favorites “KING KONG,” “I WANT YOUR LOVE,” and “B.O.M.B,” all of which featured signature choreography, fan interactions, and sing-alongs. The night closed with heartfelt closing comments from the members. “This tour wasn’t just a performance, it was a chance to be with you,” said HYUNSUK.
After a group photo with the audience, TREASURE went on to perform ‘Hello,’ another upbeat song that continued the members’ never-ending energy and quickly transitioned to a rock rendition of ‘DARARI.’ It was refreshing to witness a unique remix of the softer original. Backed by the live band’s driving guitar riffs and percussion, the members roamed freely across the stage, interacting with fans and amplifying the song’s romantic energy with raw, live instrumentals from the live band. The audience was on their feet as the group led chants of “Put your hands up!” and spelled out L-A with their hands, creating an atmosphere that felt both intimate and electric.
The group returned for a standout encore, dressed in tour merch for a medley that included “GOING CRAZY,” “B.L.T (Bling Like This),” and a rock-remixed “ORANGE.” Members ran around the stage, splashed fans with water, took selfies with fans’ phones, and thanked their band and staff for bringing the show to life. The concert ended on a high note with a reprise of “I WANT YOUR LOVE,” as fans chanted “TREASURE forever.”
Watching fans experience TREASURE’s first U.S. tour alongside the group was genuinely heartwarming. TEUMEs sang, danced, and connected with each member in a way that made the night feel special and full of energy. It was touching to see so many people creating memories together, with many meeting the group in person for the very first time. As TREASURE teased a new album in the works, both longtime fans and newcomers have a lot to look forward to.
