Gong Yoo Announces First Asia Fan Meeting Tour The Long Take From Yokohama to Seoul
Gong Yoo will hold his first Asia fan meeting tour, The Long Take, starting in Yokohama on October 4 and visiting six cities including Bangkok, Jakarta, Macao, Manila and Seoul.
Actor Gong Yoo will hold his first Asia fan meeting tour since debut. On July 16, agency Management SOOP announced that Gong Yoo will begin the "2026 Gong Yoo Asia Fan Meeting Tour The Long Take" in October across six Asian cities. The tour will start in Yokohama, Japan, on October 4, continue through Bangkok, Jakarta, Macao and Manila, and conclude in Seoul on November 28.
Gong Yoo's first Asia fan meeting tour has been planned as a place to look back on 25 years since debut together with fans. According to multiple reports, Management SOOP officially announced the fan meeting tour, "The Long Take," on July 16. The title carries the meaning of looking back on the time traveled by Gong Yoo as an actor and by Gong Ji-cheol as a person, while continuing the scenes he will create with fans in one long breath.
The schedule has been revealed in relatively specific detail. The tour will open in Yokohama on October 4. It will then continue to Bangkok on October 10, Jakarta on October 17, Macao on November 7 and Manila on November 21, before taking place in Seoul on November 28. The tour connects six cities across Asia, and it has been introduced as the first time Gong Yoo will hold a fan meeting tour across multiple cities since his debut.
One notable point in the announcement is that Gong Yoo personally shared the news with fans beforehand. On July 10, his birthday, he wrote in a handwritten letter that the fans who had been with him for a long time made him look back on the years that had passed, and that this year he had prepared a place to face that time together in person. The message explains why the tour feels closer to a format for reflecting on the time between actor and fans than to a simple event.
The official teaser video also served as a device showing the direction of the tour. The video revealed the schedule for each city alongside Gong Yoo in a calm and modern mood. As the title "The Long Take" suggests, the fan meeting is being introduced as a structure that connects the actor's past, present and future rather than briefly consuming the highlights of his career.
At the current stage, the confirmed information is limited to the fact that the tour will be held, the city-by-city schedule and the meaning of the tour title. Ticket reservation dates, venues, detailed programs and local formats will be announced later. Gong Yoo also has the Netflix series "Slowly and Intensely" ahead, making this fan meeting tour a separate schedule focused on meeting fans directly, apart from his screen work.
