The atmosphere was electric as ENNVE decked out in heart pickets, banners, and EVNNE's lightstick, maneuvered through Buckhead Theater for the best view of the night's star, EVNNE.
EVNNE, short for EVENing’s Newest Etoiles, was formed on the survival show BOYS PLANET and debuted on September 19th, 2023. The 7-member boy group, comprising Keita, Park Hanbin, Lee Jeonghyeon, Yoo Seungeon, Ji Yunseo, Mun Junghyun & Park Jihoo, were in Atlanta for the 4th stop of their first US Tour ‘RIDE WITH EVNNE.’ As the lights dimmed, the crowd erupted in a chorus of excitement, signaling the start of a memorable night.
EVNNE opened the concert with their explosive first title track, "TROUBLE," dressed in various streetwear styles, emphasizing the relaxed and fresh feel they are known for. Filled with coordinated dancing focused on connection and movements that are easy to mimic, you could see ENNVE dancing along and singing the song as it picked up. The group then smoothly transitioned into "K.O. (Keep On)" from their second mini album, Un: SEEN, before briefly pausing to introduce themselves and express gratitude for having a stop in Atlanta on their first tour. The group then asked ENNVE if they were ready to have a good night and, once met with an eager response, they entered into "I <3 U (I love U)" from their most recent album, RIDE or DIE, finishing off the show's beginning.
Following the first three songs, the night transitioned into a Q&A session where EVNNE answered pre-submitted questions from ENNVE. The segment, akin to those at fan meets, had the audience and the group laughing as they started with a song competition where the members sang the same part of a song descending in pitch and then turned around to do it ascending in pitch. It then continued with them doing a dance cover of "Boom Boom Bass" by RIIZE and "Tap" by TAEYONG before concluding with an attempted duet of the groups' song "XO" by Keita and Junghyun and a few more questions about the members' favorite things.
The group's light and talent shined as they went into the next segment of songs, showcasing even more of their hip-hop flare with older b-boy moves from the 90s in their performance of ‘Role Model,’ but they were not just here to give performances. As we entered intermission, the group showed a VCR with even more questions about how the members see themselves and each other. Their personalities radiated out of the screen, and each member's knowledge of the other members emphasized the connection portrayed on the stage throughout the night.
The night moved towards the end with more singing and dancing from ENNVE as EVNNE came out in schoolboy uniforms, executing even more high-energy cardio-based dancing. They played fan favorites "XO" and "UGLY," with fans screaming the lyrics back to them. Though the members had said goodbyes shortly after, if there is one thing to know about EVNNE, it is that the party doesn’t stop. As they returned for the encore, it could be seen by the hype music, spraying of water, and bright video accompanied by flashy lights that shrouded the venue that the group would not let the night end on a low note. The crowd jumped and danced as they enjoyed all EVNNE offered before the group ended the night with their song "EVEN MORE," emphasizing their love for ENNVE.
EVNNE is a group to see with their thrilling songs and contagious energy that fills up whatever space they are in. The group's playfulness and strength in performance emphasize the feeling of growing up and following your dreams with the ones you care about. Love was felt throughout the end from ENNVE to the members and the members to ENNVE. It is hard not to have fun at an EVNNE concert, and if you couldn’t catch them in Atlanta, there are four more stops on the ‘RIDE WITH EVNNE’ US TOUR. Check them out; they are an artist you genuinely don’t want to miss! With the performance given on their first tour, we can only anticipate how much they will grow as time goes on.
K Fuse would like to that the Helix Team, ShowKase Team, the team at Jellyfish Entertainment, and the members of EVNNE for allowing us the opportunity to provide coverage in Atlanta to show with our #SoundLovers
