Backing Vocalist Zhang Xiawei revealed that the band plans to debut new arrangements of their classic hits specifically for this tour.
"We have been practicing intensely for the past three weeks," said Zhang Xiawei. "Besides the music, we are also looking forward to the local culture. I have already made a list of local delicacies we want to try, but right now, our focus is 100 percent on the show preparation".
