A Fan Meeting Built Around New Music and Connection

On February 6, ONEW’s agency Griffin Entertainment revealed the official poster for the tour, confirming fan meetings in three major Asian cities. The event shares its title with ONEW’s upcoming fifth mini album, scheduled for release on March 9.

According to the announced schedule, ONEW will begin the tour in Taipei on April 3, followed by a three-day run in Osaka from April 24 to 26. The tour will conclude in Tokyo with performances on May 13 and 14.

Rather than a large-scale concert, TOUGH LOVE is designed as a fan-focused event. The program will include live performances of songs from the new mini album, as well as talk segments and interactive corners that allow ONEW to communicate more closely with fans.

‘TOUGH LOVE’ as a New Chapter

The fan meeting title directly reflects the concept of ONEW’s fifth mini album TOUGH LOVE. The release is expected to expand his solo musical identity, building on his signature warm vocals while exploring a more mature emotional tone.

By connecting the album and the fan meeting under the same theme, ONEW aims to present a cohesive narrative one that emphasizes sincerity, growth, and honest emotion rather than spectacle.

Continuing His Path as a Solo Artist

Since establishing himself as a solo artist, ONEW has consistently focused on musical depth and steady evolution. The upcoming album and Asia fan meeting tour highlight that approach, offering fans both new music and shared experiences in an intimate setting.

Additional details regarding ticket sales and event information are expected to be released through official channels in the coming weeks.
