Super Junior, Girls' Generation, and other SM Entertainment artists have begun arriving in Tokyo ahead of the SMTown World Tour concert.

On July 4, Super Junior member Siwon posted on Instagram that he and Super Junior-M member Henry have landed in the city.

"We just arrived in Tokyo with SM Town," said Siwon. Then he added a special message for locals by writing in Japanese: "Long time no see!"

Girls' Generation is revving up for their July comeback but the group will be joining the Tokyo concert, with members also flying in on the same day.

Tiffany and Hyoyeon both updated their Instagram accounts with self-taken photos taken during their Tokyo flight.

Aside from Super Junior and Girls' Generation, other SM Entertainment artists such as BoA, TVXQ, SHINee, f(x) and EXO are expected to perform in the SM Town Live World Tour concert in Tokyo. The concert will be held in Tokyo Dome.

But reports suggest that not all groups will be performing with a complete lineup. f(x) is expected to perform as three members without Victoria due to health issues and Sulli, who has been on hiatus since last year and is rumored to be preparing to leave the group and pursue acting full-time.
