Kai's tour schedule is set to stop at Manhattan's Carnegie Hall, where the actor has long dreamed of performing.

"I've always wanted to sing at Carnegie Hall, and then I came up with the idea of going on a world tour, and here we are now," Kai said through EMK's press release. "I want to walk the path that anyone can go but that no one has gone. [Through this tour] I strive to show who I am today."
