On this day, Kang Ki-young opened the event by singing the opening song 'I Hope to Reach You' in Japanese, announcing the official start of the fan meeting. He greeted the fans, saying, "I studied Japanese because I wanted to communicate more with my fans," and filled the venue with his unique cheerful energy and laughter throughout the event. During the talk segment, he looked back on his works from his drama debut 〈High School King〉 to his latest work 〈Mary Kills People〉, sharing behind-the-scenes stories and character-related episodes. Additionally, in a game where fans selected their 'Favorite Role No.1' through a popularity vote, he actively communicated with the audience, further heating up the atmosphere of the venue.

Moreover, a variety of special stages that could only be seen at the fan meeting followed. Kang Ki-young showcased a lively performance of RIIZE's 'Get A Guitar', adding to the excitement of the venue, and continued to have a great time with game and mission events as well as photo time.

Having finished the performance while laughing and enjoying with the fans, Kang Ki-young expressed his heartfelt feelings, saying, "Every time I come to Japan, I always feel excited to hold a fan meeting quickly. My heart keeps racing and I feel nervous because I want to see you all. While the feeling of nervousness can usually be uncomfortable, the nervousness I feel before a fan meeting is a very special and happy kind of nervousness for me."
