There are concerts—fun and flashy—giving us a break from the every day, a few hours of music and lights to remind us life can sometimes sparkle. But then… there are experiences. The kind that shifts the way you think, the way you feel, the way you dream…
Snow Man doesn’t just perform concerts—they craft full-body, heart-squeezing, soul-lifting spectacles. And their biggest one yet is streaming worldwide on Netflix. Paired with a behind-the-scenes visual diary, this isn’t just a front-row seat to the hottest group in J-Pop—as they embark on their historic first stadium tour.
Welcome to SNOW WORLD.
Opening at Tokyo’s National Stadium (filmed April 19–20), these nine incredibly talented men glistened and glittered like starlight—shining their light on nearly 280,000 ecstatic fans.
Hikaru Iwamoto, the group’s golden leader, commands the stage with clockwork precision and shimmering sex appeal—every move exact, every glance electric.
Tatsuya Fukasawa remains the group’s mischievous glue, forever flirting with the audience, teasing the camera, and warming the crowd with that signature impish grin.
The group’s youngest member, Raul is light incarnate. He doesn’t just perform—he floats like the stage was built around him.
Shota Watanabe is pure magnetism. His voice booms with the sound of God, a powerhouse of tone and presence that leaves you weak in the knees.
Ren Meguro is a study in contrasts: stoic sexiness with still waters running deliciously deep, all while a ripple of mischief flickers beneath the surface.
Koji Mukai is the group’s heartbeat. There’s an effortless cool to him, a steady charisma that doesn’t chase the spotlight but always ends up center stage anyway.
Ryohei Abe is the soul. His voice—warm, steady, and full of quiet strength—grounds even the most dazzling numbers with emotion.
Ryota Miyadate is regal and romantic, the King of Hearts dipped in velvet. Every movement is theatrical, every note a love letter to the fans.
And then there’s Daisuke Sakuma—unfiltered chaos wrapped in cuddly cuteness. A firecracker.
Somehow, whenever these nine incredibly unique personalities come together, they merge into something truly magical.
The concert launched with a triple shot of fan-favorite tracks—「Crazy F‑R‑E‑S‑H Beat」, 「EVOLUTION」, and 「POWEEEEER」—sent the stadium into an eruption of cheers. The stage design was breathtaking: sixteen moving platforms, trams weaving through the crowd, and even some seriously impressive waterworks.
During 「Namida no Umi wo Koete」, 220 tons of mist were cast 20 meters high into the night air, turning the stadium into a shimmering dreamscape.
One of the many (and I do mean many) highlights was Iwamoto breaking into a blistering drum solo—just before a seventy-piece marching band stormed the stage for a pulse-pounding remix of one of the group’s sexiest tracks, 「Tic Tac Toe」.
The energy didn’t let up. The marching band section transitioned seamlessly into a string of bangers: 「Kissin’ My Lips」 and 「LOVE TRIGGER」, before launching full-force into 「Cry Out」—which blew the metaphorical roof off the already open-air venue.
The crowd went feral.
Raul was so hyped he literally danced out of his shoes—both of them. Thankfully, Koji, the Prince Charming he is, returned them to him mid-stage, prompting Sakuma to gleefully dub Raul “Cinderella” during the MC.
Additional highlights included all nine solo songs from their latest release, the greatest hits compilation THE BEST 2020–2025—available now on all streaming platforms:

Personally, I was thrilled to see 「EMPIRE」 performed live. It’s already one of my favorite tracks, and the visuals took it to another level entirely. Then came the mashup—and oh my god, it was insane. One second, they were slipping through the silky smooth seduction of 「Slow…」; the next, we were flung into the full-throttle chaos of 「BREAKOUT」. For a second, I genuinely thought my connection glitched. But once I caught on to what they were doing? I was blown away. We need a studio version. ASAP.
One of my favorite parts of the concert? Being able to understand what the group was saying during the MCs. It added such a personal touch—I loved every second of it.
With the encore they closed the night with 「Snow World」—my absolute favorite of their music videos—followed by 「Kimi no Kareshi ni Naritai」, the adorably energetic 「KANPAI Year!!」, and finally, 「We’ll Go Together」.
Then, the sky lit up with 3,500 fireworks—each bursting in a different member’s color. All nine of them. It was a moment of surreal, unforgettable beauty—one only Snow Man could deliver.
I may not have been there in person, but knowing fans around the world can now experience Snow Man in all their glittering glory—just like I have these past four years—makes up for it.
There will be more Snow Man soon so…
