On July 29th, the city of Dallas welcomed back South Korean co-ed group K.A.R.D for their “Playground” World Tour in support of their new mini-album ‘Icky’ that was released on May 23, 2023, which also featured the single of the same name. 

K.A.R.D is composed of members J.Seph (제이셉), BM (비엠), Somin (소민), and Jiwoo (지우).

Opening the night with “Icky” K.A.R.D took over the stage of the Music Hall at Fair Park, soon after they sang and danced to “Without You”.

For the first part of the show their setlist included songs such as “Oh NaNa”, Somin and Jiwoo’s duet “Fuck You”, “Broken Me” a BM Solo and “Been That Boy” a duet performed by BM and J.Seph.

Right before the second part of the show started they played a Playground VCR, during the video, the members talked about their new music, they also thanked their fans for being there for them since they debuted in 2017. 

Some of the songs included in the setlist for the second half were “GUNSHOT”, “Cake”, “Dumb Litty”

During the entire show, K.A.R.D interacted with the fans, from asking how long they’ve been fans, getting cowboy hats as gifts, to helping a fan decide on her next tattoo.

Right before the encore part of the concert started, a roulette wheel called “Surprise Wheel Songs” was brought out onto the stage and BM informed the fans that he was going to spin the wheel to see what song would be performed. The options were “RED MOON”, “GO BABY”, “Enemy, and “Good Love”. As the wheel was spinning, K.A.R.D asked the crowd what song they were hoping it would stop on, you could hear people screaming “Enemy” and “Red Moon” and just like that the wheel came to a full stop and landed on “RED MOON” a song that was included in their KARD 4th Mini Album “RED MOON” that was released back in 2020.

To end the show, K.A.R.D played “Icky” one last time and asked the fans to do part of the choreography with them, the fans were more than happy to do so. Right before the members exited the stage, they thanked the fans for attending and promised to be back in 2024.
