aoen bring band live to Korea for the first time at 2026 Weverse Con Festival

aoen took the stage at the 2026 Weverse Con Festival on June 7 at Olympic Park's 88 Grass Field in Songpa-gu, Seoul. For the J-pop boy group under HIVE's label, it was a double first: their Korean festival debut and their first performance as a live band.

They opened with INSTANT CRUSH (Japanese title: 秒で落ちた) and Offline. Midway through, they covered RAIN's 나로 바꾸자—their first cover ever, and their first time performing in Korean. The second half brought a special medley: Seishun Incredibles (青春インクレディブル), MXMM, and The Blue Sun.

The crowd also got an early listen to the English version of Youth, a track from their third single arriving July 22. This was its first public performance anywhere. (Fanbase aoring, name-boards held high all the way to the back, caught every second.)

Via JCONIC, the members reflected: "Seeing the audience applaud and cheer together made us finish the stage even more happily. It was truly a wonderful experience."

Their third single, HAJIMARI COLOR (ハジマリCOLOR), drops July 22. Next comes a tour hitting all 47 prefectures of Japan.
