"I Want U Around": Yugyeom Reconnects with U.S. Fans in Houston During Solo Tour -- [Trusty]

GOT7’s youngest member Yugyeom embarked on his anticipated solo tour, 2025 YUGYEOM TOUR [TRUSTY] IN NORTH AMERICA & LATAM. The tour launched in Toronto on March 20, 2025, marking his first official solo North American tour.

Yugyeom visited the White Oak Music Hall in Houston, Texas, on March 25th, 2025. While it is his first North American tour as a soloist, it isn't his first time in Houston. The now-AOMG artist previously performed in the city seven years ago with his GOT7 members during their 2018 WORLD TOUR ‘EYES ON YOU’.

Since it's been a while, Ahgases were eager to reunite with the group's maknae. Many concert-goers showed out in their GOT7 merchandise, many sporting Yugyeom's name, the official fandom color green, and/or carried their AHGABONG lightsticks to give Yugyeom a warm green welcome in a sea of lights that was familiar. 

While many fans had been at the venue since early in the morning to line up hopefully for barricade, they didn't tire, as VIP had group meet and greets as well as an intimate soundcheck with Yugyeom. 

During the brief break before the concert began, fans chatted excitedly, eager for Yugyeom to return to the stage. At 8 PM on the dot, he entered the stage in the darkness. As he ended in the center, blue lights suddenly shone, illuminating his figure, sparking the packed venue to erupt. 

Yugyeom began the concert with a couple of his personal hits “I Want U Around (feat. DeVita)” and “LOLO.” He, along with his two backup dancers and DJ, got the crowd dancing from the start. The singer briefly greeted his excited fans before continuing his set with 

Throughout the night, Yugyeom performed many of his solo hits, including “All Your Fault (feat. GRAY),” “Ponytail (feat. Sik-K),” “Love The Way (feat. Jay Park & punchnello),” etc. He kept the energy hyped, even during ballads, as Ahgases waved their lightsticks. Even when Yugyeom took a brief break for an outfit change, his DJ kept the crowd on their feet dancing by playing GOT7 fan-favorites, such as “Lullaby,” “NANANA,” but even others like aespa's “Whiplash.” 

Fans were also treated to performances of some of his newer songs, such as “Sweet Like” and even a new and yet to be released song. Yugyeom also consistently interacted with fans, showing his English skills, as he only utilized a translator once or twice. Sometimes, Yugyeom also taught the concert-goers some lyrics of songs ahead of performing it, encouraging a fanchant.

As the concert came to an end, he took a group photo with the crowd, as they shouted, “Houston!” As the concert neared its end, Yugyeom also promised to take care of himself and make Ahgases proud, as he must enlist for mandatory military service this year.

While the concert “concluded” with “1MINUTE,” the crowd continually chanted Yugyeom's name until he returned for an encore. He teasingly talked to the crowd from offstage, asking if they were ready. 

Yugyeom returned to the stage, rocking not only his official tour t-shirt but, of course, a cowboy hat that suited him too well, as he posed with it and danced with the crowd. He, along with the dancers and DJ, performed the final final songs, including “WUH.” Last but certainly not least, GOT7's beloved “Hard Carry” got the audience jumping, as Yugyeom showered them with water, a much-needed cool down from the Texas heat! 

Even after the concert ended, many fans stayed outside the venue to see Yugyeom off, as he waved with all smiles at the dedicated Ahgases.
