Timeless Triumph: Generations of SM Entertainment artists with amazing sold-out performances at the Tokyo Dome

AKP STAFF

In the ever-evolving landscape of the K-pop industry, one entertainment agency has managed to carve a remarkable legacy that spans multiple generations.

Despite the recent controversy and the internal conflict within the agency, SM Entertainment is undeniably the agency that has carved the way for K-pop as we know it today.

SM Entertainment has been the sole consistent powerhouse of idols over many generations - starting with the very first generation of idols. This label has consistently wowed audiences and critics with its artists' performances at the iconic Tokyo Dome.

Recently, Korean netizens and K-pop fans were left in awe as one online community post brought to attention SM Entertainment's undeniable success in the K-pop industry, with artists performing at Tokyo Dome over multiple generations.

The netizen who created the online community post explained, "SM had their artists perform at the Tokyo Dome, including TVXQ, Super Junior, Girls' Generation, SHINee, EXO, NCT 127, and now aespa. After BoA brought K-pop overseas, all their artists from the 2nd generation to the 4th generation have all performed at Tokyo Dome."

Impressed Korean netizens commented, "People all curse SM but it is amazing for creating popular groups starting from the 1st generation all the way to the 4th. So it is an amazing company for sure," "I think it's so awesome that NCT 127 and aespa are on the list too," "So crazy, SM idols are really impressive," "It's disappointing that Red Velvet's not on the list," "Why is f(x) not there?" "NCT Dream didn't perform at Tokyo Dome?" and "Don't curse SM because without SM it would be K-pop as we know it today."
