I really missed you!!", and�overwhelmed�them with a stage that intermingled hard rock with ballad.



In Hong Kong, L'Arc~en~Ciel is known as the "pioneer of J-rock", and their popularity grew even larger after the spread of the internet. �The Hong Kong audience was humming the songs in Japanese, and there were fans that were moved to tears. �The band performed 19 songs, including the tracks from their latest album "BUTTERFLY", as well as their masterpieces.
