ONEW Connects with Fans Worldwide Through New Concert Series

SHINee member ONEW has reconnected with fans globally through his latest concert series. On May 16, he released a video titled '2025 ONEW CONCERT [ONEW THE LIVE : CONNECTION]' on his official YouTube channel. The 49-minute video features behind-the-scenes footage from his solo concert held at the Olympic Hall in Seoul over three days in February.

With the launch of 'ONEW THE LIVE,' ONEW has successfully performed in various cities, including Yokohama, Taipei, and Macau, and is set to continue his tour across eight cities in North America. ONEW aims to create a series of concerts that emphasize live performances. The first show, subtitled 'CONNECTION,' shares its name with his mini-album. ONEW expressed, "I wanted to show how I can bring happiness to my fans, how I receive happiness, and how I wish to express it. I hope that, like the meaning of the word, my fans and I can connect heart to heart."

Throughout 'ONEW THE LIVE,' ONEW has personalized each performance by varying the setlist according to the region, infusing his unique style into every show. He also took an active role in the production, contributing to stage design elements like LED displays and line art. ONEW has continuously explored new musical avenues to present a fresh experience to his audience.

He emphasized that while 'ONEW THE LIVE' bears his name, the audience plays a crucial role in the performance. "The concert is not just about me; it’s about the fans who fill the venue and everyone who worked hard to make it happen. I must convey every story I want to share on stage. In that sense, 'ONEW THE LIVE' feels like a perfectly synchronized performance," he stated.

Fans are the most important element of the concert for ONEW. He shared, "Seeing fans sing along gives me so much strength. It’s amazing how they come together to create one voice. I hope to perform in more places with more fans in the future. Thank you for your continued support!"

Additionally, ONEW is set to release his second full-length album in July, where he will meet with his domestic fans.
