GOT7's 'FLYinCHICAGO' Leaves Fans With Memories To Last A Lifetime

Thousands of fans from around the world flocked to Chicago to spend the evening with JYP Entertainment's internationally beloved idol group, GOT7.

Filling the Rosemont Theater to capacity, fans came from far and near to be a part of the group's first U.S. concert tour, "FLY in USA." Produced by SubKulture Entertainment, the 5 city, 7 show tour has met with incredible success, selling out nearly every show, and Chicago was one of them.

With thousands of excited fans cheering them on, GOT7 took to the stage, the roar of the crowd deafening. Opening the evening with a high-energy 3-song set that included "Put Them Up," "Turn Up the Music" and "Girls Girls Girls," GOT7 started the night off on an incredible high and kept the energy up throughout the 2.5 hour performance.

After a quick hello and introduction, GOT7 moved directly into a 7-song set that included "Back to Me," "A," "Magnetic," "To Star," "Playground," "Can't" and "I Like You;" all of which were sung enthusiastically by the over 4,000 fans in attendance. With so much energy in the room, it was impossible not to get caught up in the excitement, especially as the group seemed to perform one fan-favorite after another.

Keeping the energy high, the group broke into various sub-units, each of which brought their own unique feel to the stage by highlighting the member's various talents. The first of the groups was comprised of the group's leader and vocalist, JB and Youngjae. The duo performed a sweet ballad entitled, "1:31am," which perfectly showcased both the vocal skills and Youngjae's talent as a pianist.

Mark and Junior were the next to take the stage, with "Higher." Taking to the stage in bright colored suits, the two delighted fans with not only their perfect combination of vocals and rap, but also their dancing. The tricky footwork and catchy song, combined with a pair of killer smiles, made their performance an instant favorite amongst the crowd.

Jackson, BamBam and Yugyeom were the last to take the stage with a high-energy performance of "WOLO," which stands for "we only live once." By far the most theatrical of the sub-unit performances, this trio quickly snatched the hearts of the audience. With a simple reminder to their fans that we only have one life to live so you might as well make the most of it, this energetic trio had the crowd in a state very near euphoria.

With so much energy in the room, the entire group was back in no time, with another 7-song set that included "Fly," "Home Run," "See the Light," "Just Right," "Rewind," Stop Stop It," and "If You Do," and again the theater rang with the voices of thousands of fans as the crowd sang and danced along.

As the evening drew to a close, GOT7 had to take time out of their performance to thank their fans for all the love and support they've received over the years, to which they were met with overwhelming cheers from their fans.

Leaving their IGOT7s with such warm words, the group disappeared for one final costume change while the audience was kept entertained by a special mission video which challenged random members of the audience to perform various GOT7 dances. Always caught by surprise, the audience members chosen were quick to take up the challenge while the rest of the crowd cheered them on.

With the end of the challenge, GOT7 returned, but not in their usual way. As the audience was prompted to sing "Confession Song" to their beloved boys, GOT7 began to slowly stroll their way down the aisles of the theater's auditorium. Immediately surrounded by their adoring fans, the members of GOT7 slowly wound their way through the crowd, smiling and posing for quick selfies as the song played on. Eventually the members made their way back on-stage, giving their shocked and excited fans a chance to recuperate a bit before moving into their final set.

Closing out the evening with "Everyday," "Follow Me," "Bounce," "Before the Moon Rises" and a remix of "Fly," GOT7 left their fans on an incredible emotional high. With touching final words and the promise to return to Chicago soon, GOT7 soon disappeared into the darkness backstage, leaving their fans with hearts full of joy and memories that will last a lifetime.
