K-pop idols 2PM have announced the dates for some of the shows for their upcoming Asia tour next month.

The boys' agency JYP Entertainment announced in a press release on Tuesday that the “2PM HANDS UP ASIA TOUR,” which kicks off in Seoul next month, will take place in Taiwan on October 8, China on October 22, Singapore on November 19 and in Malaysia a week later with more dates and locations to come at a later date.

The press release also stated they will open an extra round of ticket sales for the concert in Seoul on continued requests from fans who were unable to purchase tickets for the show after they sold out in July.

2PM, formed of members Nichkhun, Wooyoung, Junho, Chansung, Junsu and Taecyeon, has been one of the most popular boy bands in Korea and several other countries in Asia since their debut in 2008.

They recently wrapped up promoting their title track "Hands Up" from their second full-length album of the same name in Korea and resumed their activities in Japan with the release of the new single "I'm your man."

Meanwhile, the boys are set to take the stage at Japan's Saitama Super Arena for a two-day joint concert on August 17 and 18 with their fellow JYPE labelmates.
