Rising K-pop Stars AHOF Set for First Overseas Fan Event
Just one month after their debut, rookie boy group AHOF (Stephen, Seo Jungwoo, Cha Woongki, Zhang Shuaibo, Park Han, JL, Park Juwon, Zeun, Daisuke) will hold their very first solo fan concert. Titled “AHOF 1ST PHILIPPINE FANCON RENDEZVOUS IN MANILA”, the concert takes place on August 30 at the Smart Araneta Coliseum in Manila, Philippines.
The event is significant as it marks AHOF’s first official fan gathering and live performance abroad, only a month after their debut. The concert name “Rendezvous,” which means “meeting,” reflects the group’s eagerness to connect with their international fans in person for the first time.
Special Performances and Global Plans
AHOF plans to showcase powerful and heartfelt performances from their debut mini album “WHO WE ARE”, which includes their title track “Rendezvous”. Fans can look forward to a setlist packed with memorable stages and interactive moments designed to create lasting memories.
Since their debut on July 1, AHOF has quickly gained attention with impressive achievements. Their first album sold over 360,000 copies in its first week, placing them fifth among K-pop boy group debut albums in terms of first-week sales. They also earned a “triple crown” on Korean music shows—clinching No.1 positions on The Show, Show Champion, and Music Bank just 10 days after debut.
Japan Events Added Due to Fan Demand
Building on their domestic success, AHOF is now expanding their presence globally. Before their Manila concert, the band will headline a series of release events in Japan. Originally planned as one-day events in Osaka and Tokyo, the overwhelming response from Japanese fans led to schedule extensions. Events will now be held over three days in Osaka (August 1–3) and another three in Tokyo (August 8–10).
The global momentum of AHOF is undeniable, and their swift rise shows no signs of slowing. From record-breaking debut stats to sold-out international events, the group is quickly becoming one of this year’s biggest breakout stars in K-pop.
Looking Ahead
With their first fan concert on the horizon, AHOF is proving to be more than just another rookie group. Their connection with fans—both in Korea and overseas—is growing stronger by the day. For updates on their Manila event and future schedules, fans can check AHOF’s official social media channels.
