Big Bang sets new dates for Japan tour

Korean idol group Big Bang is set to embark on a Japanese tour next February. Called "Electric Love Tour 2010," it will begin at Yokohama Arena on February 10 and continue onto Kobe and Tokyo for a total of four shows.

The Tokyo concert will be held at Budokan, one of the most prestigious concert arenas in the world. Many of the world's biggest artists in the music industry have performed at the venue, including the legendary pop group The Beatles in 1966.

The Japanese tour was previously delayed due to Daesung's suffering injures from a car accident in August. According to reports, the concert has been re-arranged to take place on a smaller scale than originally planned.

Big Bang, one of most successful idol groups in Korea, is gaining more fans in Japan every day.
The group's latest japanese single, Koe wo kikasete, released earlier this month, ranked third on Oricon's daily singles chart and fourth on the weekly singles chart.
