Fujii Kaze, a rising artist from Japan, is currently a hot topic, especially in Asia. After his songs “Shinunoga E-Wa” from his first album HELP EVER HURT NEVER and “Matsuri” a song from his second album LOVE ALL SERVE ALL went viral, he started to gain numerous fans globally. People started talking about whether he will go on a tour any time soon.
Not quite long after, on April 14th 2023 Fujii Kaze finally announced his first Asia tour — performing a one-man show only with his piano, hence the tour title “Fujii Kaze and the piano Asia Tour 2023”. He posted a teaser video on his YouTube channel, mentioning the cities he’ll be coming to and the dates. Fujii Kaze and the piano Asia Tour 2023 will be held in these six cities:

After the announcement of the tour destinations, some fans — Kazetarians — were quite disappointed since their countries aren’t on the list. Fujii Kaze then posted pictures on Instagram and wrote:
Happy to see you in Seoul, Bangkok, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Taipei, & Hong Kong ❤️🔥
Of course there are many more places I’d love to be 🥲 and I wanna perform with more than just the piano to be honest, but it seems like this is all we could do this time. To those who wanna come but can’t, let’s be patient with each other. god bless. ♡
With that being said, there might be a chance that he will go on a world tour with his whole band once he gets the opportunity. Let’s be patient, just like he said, and enjoy the show to the ones who will be watching in Seoul, Bangkok, Jakarta, Kuala Lumpur, Taipei, or Hong Kong.
