Infinite release a cute poster for their current concert, That Summer



Infinite have released a poster for their current concert, titled Infinite Concert That Summer, on July 12.
In the poster, Infinite members are freely posing for the camera on a speaker or with a guitar. Unlike their manly, charismatic looks they have shown on stage, they look like playful boys in the poster. They’ve increased their fans’ expectations for the concert by announcing that it will be a new type of concert in which they interact with their fans at a closer distance.
This concert will be a great chance to get up close with this group. They will perform versions of their songs that give the feeling of accompaniment on acoustic instruments and many of the numbers will feature energetic group dancing.
The concert will be held for five days from August 8 to 12 at the AX Hall. Ticket sales will begin on July 12 at 8:00 p.m. on Interpark.
