    B1A4 made a triumphant return to Taiwan for their 13th-anniversary fan concert, delivering an unforgettable night filled with emotional moments and high-energy performances.

    On November 10, the popular K-pop group held their 2024 B1A4 13th Anniversary Fan Concert ‘13ANA=DAY’ IN TAIWAN at the National Taipei University Sports Hall. This marked B1A4's first concert in Taiwan in nearly seven years, and the excitement was evident from the very beginning.

    The concert kicked off with a bang as the group performed "Beautiful Target," "What Is This," and their recent title track "REWIND" from their mini album released earlier this year. The members expressed their excitement, saying, "It feels like time passed so quickly because we’ve been waiting for this day so eagerly. We’re really happy to be performing here again after such a long time. We need to be full of energy to keep the fun going until the last song, so let’s all have fun together as if there’s no tomorrow!"

    The night was filled with fun interactions between B1A4 and their fans during a talk segment, where they took on challenges like "Maru Is a Dog" and "Squat 16," showing off their playful sides. The atmosphere grew even more lively with performances of "Lonely (There’s Nothing)," "Meeting You After Time," and "What Is the Taste of the Orange Sky (What Is LovE?)."

    B1A4 then brought the energy up further with hits like "Nightmare," "Oh My God," "PAUSE," and "Song of Starlight." But it wasn’t just the music that stole the show – the members also performed a hilarious skit as office workers, leaving the audience in stitches. They continued to captivate fans with solo performances, including "Fallen for U" and "Drunk in Music."

    One of the highlights of the night was when B1A4 performed "Miss You 3000," the OST from the popular Taiwanese drama Someday or One Day, which had fans going wild. The concert reached its peak with powerful performances of "Big Talk" and "IF… (As Long As You're Here)."

    B1A4 expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the Taiwanese fans, saying, "It’s been a long time since we’ve been with our Taiwanese BANA, and we hope today, ‘The Day We Fall in Love,’ becomes a really happy day for all of us. It’s an honor and happiness to be able to celebrate our 13th anniversary with our fans. BANA always makes us complete." The night ended on a sweet note with their fan song, “The Day We Fall in Love.”

    After the encore, where B1A4 performed “OK,” “SOLO DAY,” and “Goodnight,” a surprise video from Taiwanese fans played, moving the group to tears. "Today, we once again confirmed that the reason we’ve kept going as B1A4 is because of you," the members said, filled with emotion. "B1A4 will always be by BANA’s side, and we hope you’ll continue to live happily with B1A4 and BANA in your hearts, never forgetting this bond.”

    With the successful conclusion of their long-awaited concert in Taiwan, B1A4 promised to continue working in musicals, dramas, variety shows, and other fields. The concert proved that despite the seven-year gap, the bond between B1A4 and their Taiwanese fans is stronger than ever.
