VIXX teases first-ever solo concert

Though the group may be unfamiliar to some, six-member boy band VIXX is becoming one of the hottest players in the K-pop scene. The group unveiled an official poster yesterday to tease its first solo concert, "VIXX Live Fantasia: Hex Sign".

The band, comprised of Hyuk,Hong Bin, Ravi, Ken, Leo andN, debuted two years ago and began to get recognition last year with the single "Voodoo Doll", in which they promoted themselves as a "zombie idol" group. The members' goth make-up appealed to teenage K-pop fans in Korea, and at the beginning of the month, VIXX topped the music chart on SBS's weekly music show "Popular Song" with their latest single "Eternity".

On June 10, tickets for the group's three-day concert sold out within 10 minutes, proving their mounting popularity. "VIXX Live Fantasia" opens July 18 at Olympic Hall, southeastern Seoul.
