On this day, ENHYPEN showcased an overwhelming stage, demonstrating their prowess as 'performance kings.' The members started with Jungwon's elegant and powerful solo dance, followed by the sweet charm of 'XO (Only If You Say Yes)' and the peak of grandeur with 'Brought The Heat Back.' In particular, the dance break was pure passion, expressing through dance that despite the crowd blocking love, ultimately, no one can break our love. They presented a powerful sword dance (Kalgunmu) to a fast beat, and Niki captivated the audience with flawless choreography alongside dancer BADA. Their performance of 'Daydream,' showcased for the first time at '2024 MAMA,' overwhelmed the venue with a strong hip-hop sensibility and trendy dance. Additionally, Jay formed a collaboration band called 'TOENZE,' drawing attention with a special stage. Jay added energy to the song with refreshing vocals and passionate guitar playing. Meanwhile, ENHYPEN achieved double million-seller status for first-week album sales with their 2nd full album 'ROMANCE: UNTOLD' in July, ranking 2nd on the US Billboard 200. The repackage of their 2nd full album, 'ROMANCE: UNTOLD –daydream-,' released this month, also achieved remarkable sales, recording the highest first-week sales for a K-POP group's repackage album. Currently, they are on their third world tour's Japan performances, hosting the fastest three-city dome tour for a K-pop boy group, 'ENHYPEN WORLD TOUR ‘WALK THE LINE' IN JAPAN,' continuing their global impact in Japan with shows in Fukuoka at Mizuho PayPay Dome (December 28-29) and Osaka at Kyocera Dome Osaka (January 25-26).
