Synk: Hyper Line was the first worldwide concert tour by South Korean girl group Aespa, in support of their extended plays Savage (2021), Girls (2022), and My World (2023). The tour began on February 25, 2023, in Seoul, South Korea and concluded on September 30, 2023, in Paris, France. The tour consisted of 31 concerts in 21 cities in 12 countries around the world.

Background[edit]

On December 1, 2022, Aespa's official Japanese website announced that the group would hold their first concert tour in Japan. It was confirmed as part of the Aespa Live Tour 2023 "Synk: Hyper Line" on January 20, 2023.[1] On the same day, SM Entertainment announced that Aespa would hold concerts in South Korea for the first time since their debut at the Jamsil Indoor Stadium on February 25 and 26.[2] In April, two shows were added at the Tokyo Dome,[3] and a show in Jakarta was added the following month.[4] On May 19, the tour was expanded to North America, South America, and Europe with 14 dates.[5]
