K-pop idols 2PM will perform in front of several jam-packed crowds at their upcoming concerts in Thailand, China and Hong Kong, according to the concert's promoter CJ E&M on Tuesday.

CJ announced through a press release that all the seats to 2PM's "2PM Hands Up Asia Tour Concert" which will take place at the Impact Arena in Thailand on February 18, Nanjing Olympic Sports Center in China a week later and at the Asia World Arena in Hong Kong on March 10 have sold out.

"We thank all the international and local fans for always supporting the boys and we hope that their efforts will be repaid through the group's concert," an official with 2PM's agency JYP Entertainment was quoted as saying.

2PM kicked off their Asia tour in Seoul in September of last year and have visited several other countries such as Taiwan, Indonesia and Singapore as well.

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.

In the meantime, the boys will release a greatest hits album in Japan, featuring their songs "Heartbeat," "I'll Be Back" and "Hands Up," on March 14.
