Critical reception
Jan Lee, writing for The Straits Times highlighted their stage presence, saying they "showcased the top-notch polish and showmanship" of a K-pop act and "unlike newer groups who perhaps still feel the pressure to be perfect, Super Junior were so comfortable and at home, it was akin to a meeting with old friends." Georgie Joseph from Harian Metro, in his review of the Malaysian stop said that Super Junior were "well prepared" for the concert. He elaborated that "they are ready to bring a performance concept that is rarely seen" and "to show off their different side". He also praised the "broadway segment" in the concert, in which the band wore English nobility costume, saying it was "quite entertaining".
