AHOF’s Meteoric Rise: From Debut to Manila Spotlight
K-pop rookie group AHOF (short for A House of Fire) is proving they’re no ordinary newcomers. The nine-member boy band—Steven, Seo Jeongwoo, Cha Woonggi, Zhang Shuaibo, Park Han, JL, Park Juwon, Zuen, and Daisuke—is heading to Manila for their first overseas fan concert, just two months after debut. And yes, it’s already sold out.
From Zero to Fancon Hero
On June 30, AHOF will hold their “1ST PHILIPPINE FANCON RENDEZVOUS IN MANILA” at the Smart Araneta Coliseum, a venue that has hosted A-list K-pop acts like BTS and EXO. The show sold out in under 30 minutes—with additional seats disappearing almost as fast. Not bad for a rookie group, right?
Not Just Big in Korea—Global Eyes on AHOF
Following their debut album “WHO WE ARE”—which sold over 360,000 copies—the group secured the No. 5 spot for highest first-week sales by a debut K-pop boy group. With their award-winning title track “Rendezvous”, the boys landed triple wins on Korean music shows, signaling they’re here to stay.
Philippines Falls Under the AHOF Spell
Their Manila visit isn’t just exciting fans—Filipino media is equally enchanted. Over 150 journalists packed their press conference on June 29, with top broadcasters like ABS-CBN, GMA, and TV5 attending. Even global platforms like Billboard Philippines and allkpop lined up for interviews.
Fan-Approved Setlist: Nostalgia + New Hits
The fan concert promises a setlist that’s basically a love letter to fans. AHOF will perform tracks from their debut album and bring back powerful performances from their survival show days. It’s a mix of past and present, showing just how far they’ve come—and where they’re headed.
Special Cover Stages = Surprise Fever
If that’s not enough, fans will also get special cover performances tailored to each member’s style. It’s the kind of treat that turns a concert into a core memory. Expect new perspectives of AHOF’s musical talents as they explore different genres and flavors of K-pop.
More Fan Love Incoming
AHOF isn’t wrapping up in Manila just yet. On July 31, they’ll hold a fan signing event at Robinsons Galleria to meet more of their dedicated PH fans up close. From the hype building across continents, it’s safe to say AHOF’s global future is just getting started.
