Singer Lim Young-woong expressed his deep gratitude to fans for their love on the occasion of his 10th debut anniversary.

On the 8th, a photo of Lim Young-woong holding a cake was posted on his official social media along with a message celebrating his 10th debut anniversary. The post read, "Celebrating the 10th debut anniversary of artist Lim Young-woong and the 10th anniversary with Hero Era. Always stay healthy and happy! Stay healthy and happy," conveying his gratitude for the 10 years spent with his fan club 'Hero Era.'

Lim Young-woong took his first step into the music industry with the digital single 'I Hate You' on August 8, 2016. After going through a period of obscurity, he gained public recognition by winning TV Chosun's 'Mr. Trot' in 2020. His first full-length album 'IM HERO,' released in May 2022, surpassed 1.1 million copies in its first week, becoming a million-seller. With numerous hit songs including 'Now Trust Only Me,' 'Love Always Runs Away,' and 'My Starry Love,' he has firmly established himself as a representative solo singer in South Korea.

Over the past 10 years, Lim Young-woong has expanded trot beyond generational and genre boundaries into popular music, building an unrivaled presence. This popularity has been proven as every concert held at large venues such as KSPO Dome, Gocheok Sky Dome, and Seoul World Cup Stadium sold out. In particular, he successfully held his first stadium concert at Seoul World Cup Stadium in 2024, and continued his multifaceted activities by appearing in the seven-episode SBS variety show 'Mountain Bachelor Hero' from June 23 to August 4.

His record-breaking run continues. From the 4th to the 6th of next month, he will meet fans with his second stadium solo concert 'IM HERO - THE STADIUM 2 IN GOYANG' at the main stadium of Goyang Sports Complex in Gyeonggi Province. Lim Young-woong's concert tickets have consistently demonstrated extraordinary ticket power, recording unprecedented 'blood-ticketing' competition and lightning-fast full sellouts every time reservations open.

Meanwhile, this day is a meaningful one not only for Lim Young-woong but also for the girl group BLACKPINK, who also celebrate their 10th debut anniversary.
