Background and development
On September 23, 2016, YG Entertainment announced that CL would hold her first American tour. She will visit nine cities in North America, with a total of nine shows.[1][2] The tour's name derives from CL's 2015 Korean language single "Hello Bitches".

The sold-out show at the Hammerstein Ballroom[3][4] made her the first Korean female singer to play a solo concert at a major venue in New York City.[5] An unreleased music video of "Hello Bitches" was also played during the tour.
