SHINee's Taemin, a prominent solo artist, has once again underscored his significant international appeal by selling out his forthcoming Las Vegas concert. The event, titled ‘TAEMIN Live [VEIL] in Las Vegas,’ is set to take place on January 16th at the Dolby Live at Park MGM, and tickets were fully claimed during the general sale.

The digital ticketing process, which commenced at 3 AM KST on the 25th, saw an extraordinary surge of over 200,000 users attempting simultaneous access. This high demand led to wait times nearing an hour for many prospective attendees, with all available tickets being secured within a swift ten-minute window from the sale's commencement. This rapid sell-out follows a strong reception in the U.S. for Taemin's performance of "Veil" on ‘The Kelly Clarkson Show’ on November 22nd KST. The track itself previously achieved a notable No. 3 position on the Billboard World Digital Song Sales chart, indicating a solid foundation of fan interest.
This latest achievement builds upon a history of robust U.S. engagement for the artist. During his inaugural solo world tour, ‘Ephemeral Gaze,’ last year, Taemin's five performances across major cities including New York, Chicago, Houston, Oakland, and Los Angeles also achieved sold-out status. Due to substantial demand at the time, additional seating was subsequently made available to accommodate more fans.
The consistent and rapid sell-out of U.S. concert dates highlights Taemin's enduring popularity and considerable market pull as a solo act. This trend is expected to continue generating fervent fan anticipation for his upcoming Las Vegas performance, solidifying his position as a major draw in the global entertainment landscape.
