The Fantastic Old-fashioned End of the Year Party! (Korean: 판타스틱 올드 패션드 송년회) was the third concert tour headlined by South Korean indie rock band Jannabi. It was their first solo concert in about three years since the Nonsense II concert held in February 2020. The group had 20 shows in 8 cities in South Korea. The tour recorded over 160,000 waiting numbers during the general sales and was attended by 50,000 people.[1]

Background and promotion[edit]

On September 29, 2022, Peponi Music announced that Jannabi would tour concert halls in 8 cities in South Korea: Busan, Gwangju, Seoul, Incheon, Daegu, Suwon, Chuncheon and Cheonan on their social media accounts. In the promotional poster with graphic elements of vintage and colorful sensibility, the duo completed the feel-good energy with finger snap poses. The image was posted featuring the lyrics from their 2019 song "Legend" that reads "Flash, it's my last-ditch effort. Fireworks are the final moments. We have to burn it down." Peponi Music considered performing at the SK Olympic Handball Gymnasium but decided to have the Seoul performances at the Olympic Hall. The stage had a special meaning to the band for that was where they held their breakthrough performance which was rare to happen for an indie band.[2][3]

In an interview with JTBC's Differential Class All Night Talk, Choi Jung-hoon revealed that the most important part of the setlist was their 2015 song "Beautiful" with a lyrics that says "That's why we are a beautiful moment." The lyrics became the foundation to work on their setlist and convey the message they wanted to tell the audience.[4]

Critical reception[edit]

Park So-young of Osen praised the "synergistic effect" of the duo, stating: "It's possible to get tired, but the magic-like performance that everyone doesn't get tired of is the power of Jannabi."[5] Jo Eun-byul of Sports Seoul acknowledged the performance that proved why Jannabi is "the next-generation K-rock band" as they "mesmerized the audience by going back and forth from gentle rock ballads to authentic hard rock with rocking shouts." In addition, she noted: "Choi Jung-hoon trained the audience with more flexible gestures than any other rock group frontman."[6] Pop culture critic Jung Min-jae praised the concert as a "huge rock 'n' roll show" and noted the rarity to see a performance with level of composition and perfection.[7] He added that the band's true value comes from a solo performance, stating: "With overflowing energy and mature expressiveness, they set up a dense stage for 3 hours, smoothly changing the level and mood."[8]

Famous personalities also wrote praises on their personal social media accounts after the performance. Ballet dancer Yoon Hye-jin posted: "Like the lyrics of the song, What can I say! We are lucky to be living in the Jannabi generation.”[9] Singer and lyricist Jo Dong-hee posted: “Excellently beautiful stage art, sound, stage manners, guest care and music.”[10]

It ranked first and second in the daily reservation rate ranking and weekly best ranking, respectively.[12] Due to high demand, additional limited-view seat tickets for Seoul, Daegu and Chuncheon performances were made available for purchase.[13][14]
