Onew, a member of SHINee, spent the best time with his fans (Chingu). Onew held his first fan concert in Seoul, '2024 ONEW FAN CONCERT "Hola!"' at the Olympic Handball Arena in Seoul on October 5-6. If Onew shared a bright future he paints with fans through the solo fan meeting 'GUESS!' held in May this year, at 'Hola!', he took the first step towards the future by holding fans' hands. On this day, Onew opened the concert with the title track of his 3rd mini-album 'FLOW', 'Hola!', and greeted the fans. Receiving cheers from fans from the first song, he showcased all the stages of the title track 'Charm (beat drum)' and the songs 'Maestro', 'Shape of My Heart', 'Focus', 'Monday to Sunday', displaying his unique worldview. Each song selection conveyed his feelings towards the fans. Onew sang 'Uroko', a track from his first full album in Japan, which had been requested by Korean fans on stage, delivering a moist atmosphere suitable for an autumn night. Moreover, Onew communicated with fans through various segments such as 'Digging Q&A' where he answered questions fans wanted to know at a nano level, 'Onew's Live Umchal!' where fans reenacted his past legendary moving photos, and 'Baseball that grants wishes' where he fulfilled wishes collected from fans in advance. Onew's meticulous thoughtfulness was evident everywhere. He set up a stage for the second-floor audience and ran around the venue, paying attention to each fan. During entry and exit, he presented photo cards with affectionate handwritten messages, warmly welcoming fans who attended the concert. At the end of the fan concert, Onew expressed, 'Since it was my first time producing and writing all the songs, I was nervous and had many worries while releasing the 3rd mini-album 'FLOW'. Seeing everyone enjoy it makes me feel supported instead, and I am grateful. I want to keep pushing forward. Please trust and leave everything to me.' After achieving success with the fan concert 'Hola!', Onew will continue his concert tour in Taipei on November 2 and in Kanagawa on November 21-22.
