AHOF Returns with a Bolder, Brighter Vibe on Music Show
K-pop rookie group AHOF isn’t slowing down. The nine-member team (Steven, Seo Jungwoo, Cha Woongki, Zhang Shuaibo, Park Han, JL, Park Juwon, Zhe En, and Daisuke) will return to the stage this weekend with their vibrant B-side track, “Blue School, Green Grass, Red Sneakers”—this time on national broadcast.
‘Inkigayo’ Performance Anchored by Fan Demand
Set to air on SBS’s ‘Inkigayo’ on the 17th, this marks the song’s first appearance on a major music show. AHOF first teased the track during their debut showcase, later amping up the hype with a stylish music video that earned raves internationally. Fans didn’t hold back—they flooded social media with requests to see the B-side performed live. So naturally, the group listened.
From Dreamy Debut to Youthful Groove
If the title track “Rendezvous” gave us soft dreamy magic, “Blue School, Green Grass, Red Sneakers” brings a youthful, poppy twist. It’s cheerful, playful, and packed with nostalgic charm—perfectly channeling boyish energy and the fresh excitement of a new school year vibe (Korean style, of course—think sports days and after-school hangouts rather than lockers and prom).
A Nod to Their Audition Era
The track isn’t just a vibe—it’s a narrative. Lyrics pull inspiration from the group’s high-stakes audition journey. Imagine diverse colors blending to form a sharper, stronger “us.” It’s metaphorical, but catchy too. And fans clearly love it: the song ranked #3 on K-pop Radar’s Weekly Fandom Chart on July 1 and continues climbing global platforms like Spotify, iTunes, and Apple Music.
Dual-Track Success
With both their title and B-side tracks gaining strong traction, AHOF is proving they’re not a one-song wonder. They’re building momentum, fast.
“We wanted to thank our fans by sharing a different side of ourselves,” the group shared through their agency. “This performance is just as much theirs as it is ours.”
So whether you’re team ‘Rendezvous’ or rooting for those red sneakers—AHOF’s double debut strategy seems to be working wonders on the global K-pop arena.
