Apink will soon launch a global tour across cities handpicked by international fans during a campaign.

According to Plan A Entertainment, the K-pop group will commence the tour with a concert in Hong Kong on Sept. 23. It will perform in Taipei on Oct. 8, and wrap up on Nov. 4 in Bangkok.

The cities were selected via a crowdsourcing platform, My Music Taste, which involved fans requesting concerts in specific places. The group’s official fan club PANDA had also participated.

Apink released its sixth EP “Pink UP” last month. It is currently touring Japan and is set to release its eighth single in the country Tuesday.
