Lee Hi – 808 HI Recordings World Tour 2026: What to Know (Jakarta)

Why this show matters

Lee Hi, the South Korean singer known for her smoky, soul-inflected vocals on tracks like “1, 2, 3, 4,” “Breathe,” and “Rose,” was bringing her 808 HI Recordings world tour to Indonesia for the very first time. The Jakarta date was announced as her first solo concert in the country, a notable milestone for her local fanbase after years of only catching her at group showcases or festival lineups.

Special guest DOK2, a veteran Korean rapper and producer, joined the bill, which suggested the night would lean into a hip-hop-and-R&B-flavored set rather than a straight pop showcase. For fans of Korean R&B and AOMG/hip-hop adjacent acts, this was a rare pairing of both artists on Indonesian soil.

Where and when

The concert was set for August 9, 2026, at Bengkel Hall, located in the SCBD (Sudirman Central Business District) area of South Jakarta. SCBD is one of Jakarta’s premier business and entertainment districts, packed with malls, office towers, and event venues, making it a familiar stop for international concerts and brand activations. Bengkel Hall itself is known as a mid-size indoor venue suited to concerts, showcases, and corporate events, with a standing-and-seated hybrid setup typical of this venue type.

Getting to Bengkel Hall, SCBD

SCBD sits along Jalan Jenderal Sudirman, one of Jakarta’s main arteries, and is well served by the city’s transit options. The Jakarta MRT’s Blue Line has stations directly in the district — ASEAN and Senayan/Istora stations are the closest, both putting visitors within a short walk or quick ride-hail trip of the SCBD core. Jakarta traffic is notorious, especially on a weekend evening, so car and app-based ride journeys through the area can be slow (Gojek and Grab are the standard options locals use).

Taxis and ride-hailing are plentiful in this district since it’s a business and nightlife hub, so leaving after a show here is easier than in outer areas of the city.

What to expect from the set

Lee Hi’s catalog spans emotionally heavy ballads, sultry mid-tempo R&B, and the occasional upbeat hip-hop collaboration — a legacy of her early days on Show Me the Money and her tenure at YG Entertainment before moving to AOMG. With DOK2 on the bill, the show was expected to include at least one or two collaborative or hip-hop-forward segments alongside her solo hits.

World tour stops for Korean R&B/hip-hop artists in Southeast Asia typically run 90 minutes to two hours. Set times, encore structure, and any VIP soundcheck or meet-and-greet add-ons were detailed through the official ticket tiers.

Tickets and practical notes

Ticket pricing, seating categories, and on-sale dates were not specified in the initial announcement; these details rolled out in phases (presale, general sale, VIP packages). Tickets were sold through the official promoter or verified ticketing platform, with the usual risks around scalping and counterfeit tickets that accompany high-demand K-pop-adjacent shows in Jakarta.

How to visit like a local

Jakarta concertgoers tend to arrive in waves rather than queue for hours outside — unless it’s a general-admission floor show, in which case early birders start lining up a few hours ahead to secure spots near the stage. Bengkel Hall’s numbered or zoned floor system, where applicable, shapes how much of a difference that early queueing makes.
