Group AMPERS&ONE has successfully concluded their first fan meeting since their debut.
AMPERS&ONE held the 2024 AMPERS&ONE Fan Meeting ‘&Dear. My First _’ at Howon Art Hall in Gangdong-gu, Seoul on the 23rd. This fan meeting was AMPERS&ONE‘s first domestic solo fan meeting since their debut in 2023, and they created special memories with fans over two sessions, one at 3 PM and one at 7 PM.
AMPERS&ONE, who appeared in their school uniforms, announced the start of the fan meeting with greetings and skits that were overly immersed in the student concept. Then, they created various corners and games reminiscent of school life, making fans excited and laugh.
Not only that, they showed off diverse performances such as ‘Sheesh’ from their debut single ‘AMPERSAND ONE’, the romantic ‘Over The Moon’ and refreshing title song ‘He + She = We’ from their first mini album ‘ONE QUESTION’, and the intense title song ‘Broken Heart’ from their second single ‘ONE HEARTED’, proving their limitless ability to digest concepts.
The cover and unit stages prepared for this first fan meeting also received a great response. Na Camden, Choi Ji-ho, Makaya, and Kim Seung-mo decorated the stage of Tomorrow X Together’s ‘Good Boy Gone Bad’, and Brian, Yoon Si-yoon, and Kairel presented the unit stage of TWS‘s ‘First Meeting Doesn’t Go As Planned’, increasing satisfaction. In particular, the cover stage of BTS‘s ‘Blood, Sweat, and Tears’, in which all the members wore leather jackets and showed off their extraordinary charisma, was considered the highlight of the concert and raised the atmosphere to its peak. In response, the fans responded with loud cheers, passionate cheers, and slogan events, creating touching moments that will be remembered for a lifetime for approximately 140 minutes.
At the end of the concert, Brian said, “I’m so happy that I could do my first fan meeting together. Thank you to Andier (fandom name) who cheered me on so much”, expressing his sincere gratitude, and Na Camden said, “It‘s so meaningful that we’re having a fan meeting now, after a year together. We will have many more fan meetings and concerts in the future, so I hope you can stay with us until the end. I love you,” he said with a moved expression. Makaya also raised expectations for their future activities by saying, “This is just the beginning.”
After the concert, the members continued their close communication until the end by making eye contact with fans and greeting them through a high-touch event.
Meanwhile, Ampersand One successfully concluded their first domestic fan meeting following the release of their first mini-album, ‘ONE QUESTION’, in October. The members plan to meet with global local fans through the Asia fan meeting tour, ‘2025 AMPERS&ONE FAN MEETING ‘&Dear. My First _’ in ASIA’, starting in Singapore on January 10 next year. Attention is focused on the hard work of Ampersand One, who is steadily growing and expanding their global fandom.
