ONF returned to Toronto on August 16 at the Bluma Appel Theatre. The boy group, consisting of Hyojin, Seungjun, E-Tion, Minkyun, Wyatt and U, debuted in 2017 and have been making international waves since.
ONF appeared on stage in shining white jeweled suits and began the night with “New World” and “Ugly Dance.” Their electrifying choreography and vocals elicited cheers from Fuses, the name of ONF’s fans, all night.
The members took a break to introduce themselves and share funny stories. The boys had explored the city earlier but were shocked at the long lines to ride a ferry to visit the Toronto Islands. Then, Hyojin, E-Tion and U took turns to flip a plastic water bottle and only Hyojin was the one to land his upright.
ONF continued with “Sukhumvit Swimming,” and “Goosebumps” before their first VCR break. The members appeared back on stage in more complimentary outfits, red and white cardigans, jackets and denims.
For “My Name Is,” the members had walked off the stage into the audience which brought out more screams and cheers from Fuses. The boys were seen interacting with their fans, completing hand hearts and singing.
Mic stands were lined up side by side for ONF to deliver their beautiful ballads such as “Moscow Moscow” and “Breath, Haze & Shadow.” Each song was accompanied by soft ambient lighting and background screen visuals of nature.
After another brief VCR intermission, ONF were back on stage in stunning black suits for the alluring “Bye My Monster.” Hyojin sported a baton, conducting the choreography and capturing fans’ hearts. ONF’s infectious energy continued with “We Must Love” and “Show Must Go On.”
ONF and Toronto Fuses time eventually had to come to an end as the members announced their last song. “Beautiful, Beautiful” lives up to its name with its fun choreography paired with light vocals, a sweet farewell to Fuses.
As ONF walked off stage, “encore” chants from the crowd began. The boys are quick to appear back on stage in tour T-shirts and jeans for a more casual vibe to officially end the night with “Your Song” and “Complete.” The members never fell short on fan service, always keeping their fans engaged and happy until the end. When the night had wrapped up, ONF stood side by side, holding hands and bowing to their adoring fans.
ONF are an energetic and gifted group of 6 boys that know they will always be loved in Canada. Don't miss your chance to see ONF as they continue to make their way through America during their "SPOTLIGHT" tour!
