Rising K-pop boy group Xikers lit up The Novo in Los Angeles on May 17th. They delivered an unforgettable performance that showcased their explosive energy, tight choreography, and growing musical depth. Performing as a 10-member group—a change from their previous tour’s 9-member set—Xikers took full advantage of their complete lineup.
Xikers Kick Off The Night With High Energy
The night kicked off with the adrenaline-pumping track “Xikey”. This immediately set the tone for a dynamic and engaging show. The group closed with fan-favorite “Breathe,” a powerful finale that left the crowd roaring for more.
Throughout the concert, Xikers treated fans to a blend of group and unit performances. This offers a diverse setlist that highlighted each member’s unique charm. In a tour-first moment, Minjae, Sumin, and Yechan performed their unit song “Canvas”. This drew cheers from longtime fans excited to see the trio’s synergy live.
Unit Stages
Not to be outdone, the remaining members had their time to shine as well. Seeun, Hyunwoo, Jinsik, and Junghoon delivered a smooth and soulful cover of Justin Bieber’s “Holy”. Meanwhile Junmin, Yujun, and Hunter brought the house down with an electrifying dance cover of “Ring A Ling” by Tkay Maidza.
Fan interaction was a consistent highlight throughout the night. During “KOONG,” the members twirled umbrellas as part of the performance, adding theatrical flair. Later, during “Every Flavor Jelly,” they tossed jelly candies into the crowd, delighting fans with the unexpected treat. The floor of The Novo—located on the third story—literally shook under the weight of the crowd’s energy during “Do or Die,” one of the evening’s most intense moments.
Awaiting Encore
While awaiting the encore, the audience kept the energy alive by singing along to “Do or Die” and “We Don’t Stop,” with lyrics helpfully displayed on screen. The group returned to the stage to perform an unreleased track, “Moonwalk,” giving fans a sneak peek at what’s to come in their evolving sound.
The group promised to make their return but also new music in the near future.
In all, Xikers proved they are a force to be reckoned with on stage. From their razor-sharp choreography and thoughtful unit stages to their playful fan interactions, the group delivered a performance that was both polished and personal—an evening that left fans breathless and buzzing with anticipation for what’s next.
