Though the COVID-19 pandemic put a halt to K-Pop concerts for a while, the touring business is back in full swing, and tons of Korean artists have been going on multi-continent tours in the last couple of years. Some of the highest-grossing K-Pop tours ever have been in these last few years, but there were some pre-pandemic that still remain in the top ten to this day!
