Boy band Big Bang will hold their concert ``Big Show'' from Jan. 29 to 31 at the Gymnastic Stadium, Olympic Park, Seoul.

``Whenever the year ends and the New Year approaches, we get questions asking when Big Band will hold a show. We are planning to bring a high quality show for fans once again early next year,'' said the group's agency, YG Entertainment, in a press release, Wednesday.

``The Big Show will bring the best of the best, from stage settings, music, visual effects to outfits. We will do our best to bring an upgraded version and satisfy the band's fans,'' the agency said.

The five-member group had their members show off individual talents this year, with G-Dragon, Tae-yang and Victory releasing their own singles; T.O.P making an appearance in the hit drama ``IRIS'' on KBS; and Dae-sung showing himself in SBS's entertainment show ``Family is Out.''

The agency added that because the members didn't have a chance to perform that often as a group in 2009, they are planning to make up to their fans for it. The concert will be the first time in almost a year that they will perform together as a band.

This year's Big Show was indeed impressive, with a grand piano floating in the air attached to wires, members flying over screaming fans on moving swings and individual stages designed by each member.

Big Bang made their debut in 2006 and has now become one of the hottest boy bands in Korea. Their hit songs include ``Day By Day,'' ``Oh My Friend'' and ``Lie.''

Tickets for the Big Show will be available at Gmarket, www.gmarket.co.kr, from Dec. 28 to 30.
