There are times when you feel like you receive strength back from someone you like while cheering them on. When I heard the news about Monsta X's North American tour, that kind of relationship came to mind first. The members shared that they gained strength by seeing the local fans genuinely enjoying the performance. It was heartwarming to realize that feelings don't just flow from the stage down to the audience.

Starship announced on October 6 that Monsta X kicked off THE X NEXUS North American tour with a performance in Virginia. Opening the doors to a tour in a new region must be accompanied by various preparations and expectations. Although I wasn't there in person, I think I can get a sense of what the members cherished through their comments.

It was announced that the performances would continue at the Infosys Theater at Madison Square Garden in New York on the 6th, local time. Since the people you meet change with every change of city, each person's own day will accumulate even within a tour of the same name. Rather than binding all those encounters into a single reaction, I would like to think of it as a process where different greetings come together.

If seeing fans enjoy themselves gives strength to the singer, and that strength returns to the stage, it would be a beautiful cycle. Upon seeing this news, my heart lingered on those brief words rather than any grand records. I quietly hope that you can continue to exchange welcoming smiles and positive energy with each other during the remainder of the tour.
