AHOF Offers a First Glimpse into Debut Album
On June 24 at midnight KST, rookie K-pop group AHOF (comprised of Steven, Seo Jungwoo, Cha Woongki, Zhang Shuaibo, Park Han, JL, Park Juwon, Zuen, and Daisuke) dropped a teaser film for their debut mini-album WHO WE ARE on their official social media channels.
A Symbolic Start: ‘The Boy Who Fell on Stage (Intro)’
The teaser, titled ‘The Boy Who Fell on Stage (Intro)’, features deeply atmospheric storytelling with a dreamlike tone. Previously hinted at using nothing but nine star emojis, the film symbolizes each member as a shining star. Initially seen in separate spaces, the members come together, their individual lights merging into one unified constellation—perfectly capturing the essence of ‘becoming AHOF.’
Emotive Soundtrack With a Familiar Touch
The intro pays homage to the children’s lullaby ‘Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star’, blending nostalgic melodies with AHOF’s unique storytelling. The result is a vintage-inspired, emotional track that evokes the fragile emotions of a boy stepping onto the stage for the first time. Rather than portraying debut as purely celebratory, the group openly explores themes of fear, vulnerability, and budding hope.
A New Dimension of AHOF
This teaser represents a striking contrast to the group’s earlier sporty concept photos, revealing a more poetic and introspective side. As anticipation builds toward their debut, fans are eager to dissect the messages behind WHO WE ARE and discover the diverse aspects of AHOF’s artistry.
Official Debut Set for July
AHOF’s first mini-album WHO WE ARE will drop on major music streaming platforms on July 1. As the group steps into the limelight, all eyes are on the message they aim to deliver through their much-anticipated debut.
