Written by Rebecca R. If you've been active on social media in the past week, you're likely aware that JUST B is captivating K-Pop fans with a storm. Earlier this year, JUST B and tour organizer, TheKStage, the boy group’s upcoming 2024 ‘Just Be With You’ North and South America' Tour -- which included Dallas, TX as their 5th stop.  JUST B is a 6-member boy group under BLUEDOT Entertainment consisting of Lim Jimin, Geonu, Bain, JM, DY, and Sangwoo. JUST B debuted on June 30th, 2021 with their first mini album “JUST BURN” and its title track “ Damage ” produced by BANG YONGGUK. The group then released the EPs “ JUST BEGUN ,” “ ME = (NEUN) ,” and “ ÷ (NANUGI) .” Thanks to their powerful performances and unmatched charisma, JUST B’s fandom, ONLY B has grown significantly over the past 2 years, so ONLY B could not wait to meet their favorite group this year.  Before the show in Dallas, K-Fuse was invited to join JUST B’s press conference where we got to learn more about the members and their experience on tour so far. Check out the members' responses below ( Responses have been revised for clarity): Which song do each of you have the most attachment to among your songs? Bain : “ Coming Home ” is my favorite song because I wrote that song while I was on the road, and I was thinking of every ONLY B in every country. I love that song so much.  Lim Jimin : I also like the song “ Coming Home ” because my voice is well-suited for this song. I also like how the melody complements our vocals. JM : I like the song “ Camellia ” because of its vibe. I like listening to that song on a rainy day.  DY : My favorite song is “ Daddy’s Girl ,” our new song. And, actually, I like “ I luv you Merry Christmas ” because it is our first Christmas Song. Geonu : For me it’s " Medusa ." We did our MAMA performance with " Medusa " and it’s a song that I really like because of the style/concept. Sangwoo : I also like " Medusa " because it was a fitting song for the group, and the process and production was very effective for us.  Is there a music genre that JUST B wants to try in the future? DY : I actually am really interested in trying punk, pop rock, and metal is cool too. So, please keep an eye on us! Apart from JUST B’s activities, is there a genre or something that each member wants to try or learn? JM : My drama with Geonu will air on April 1st ( Love is Like a Cat ), so we really want to experiment more with acting. Lim Jimin : I would like to try all the genres. I am open to try any genre we can.  You’ve already visited four places in the United States and Latin America, and Dallas is the fifth. Which food left the most impression on you.  Lim Jimin : I personally like Korean food the most and yesterday we had spicy pork bibimbap and I really enjoyed it.  Sangwoo : Even though there is a lot of American food in Korea, I really enjoyed trying the burgers and fries from Shake Shack and Five Guys. In Brazil, we also went to an all-you-can-eat steakhouse, and I really enjoyed it. There was a lot of food, but I wanted to try everything! Geonu : This might sound a little weird, but I loved Delta’s (airline) food. Haha it had chicken and rice.  DY : I had chicken wings in the airport yesterday and they tasted quite different from korean-style wings, but I really enjoyed them. JM : I liked the hamburgers here in America. The patty is a lot thicker so the burgers are really big and I really enjoyed them.  Bain: I’ve been enjoying the American breakfast like pancakes, scrambled eggs, and bagels with cream cheese. I love it! End of the press conference… We were so grateful to be a part of this press conference and getting the opportunity to check in with the members of JUST B as they approached the middle of their tour, but that was only the beginning.  JUST B took the stage at Dallas’s Southside Music Hall in dark Diesel outfits which exuded a powerful energy like JUST B’s performances. They kicked off the show with their b-side “ Get Away ” as ONLY B screamed in excitement to have the boys in front of their eyes. They then proceeded to perform more of their popular b-sides like “ Make It New, ” and “ RE=LOAD , ” which was co-written by member DY. JUST B’s energy was immaculate from the beginning, but their presence grew exponentially stronger when it was time to perform their debut song “ DAMAGE .” The red lighting, the fans singing, and the powerful execution by JUST B made the entire venue shake during this performance.  The boys took a break after “ DAMAGE, ” and Geonu took a turn at the mic to express how the song has one of the most difficult choreographies in K-Pop and how excited he was for ONLY B to see it live. Then, JUST B moved on to the next segment in which they showcased their many talents by covering songs by other artists. The members danced to short versions of (G)-Idle’s “ Super Lady ,” LE SSERAFIM’s “ Easy ,” DPR IAN’s “ Don’t Go Insane ,” Tyla’s “ Water ,” Taemin’s “ Guilty ,” and ATEEZ’s “ Crazy Form .” JUST B also took us back in time by singing a full cover of One Direction’s " Perfect ." As if that was not enough, the members Geonu, Sangwoo, and JM prepared a special solo performance for the show. Geonu did a rendition of Michael Jackson’s “ Rock With You ,” JM covered Wave to Earth’s “ Seasons ,” and Sangwoo showed off his dance skills with krump-style choreography to Busta Rhymes’s “ M.O.P. ” JUST B’s energy was through the roof and it never came back down. After the cover segment, the boys came out in jeans and the “Just Be With You” tour t-shirts for the last part of the show. JUST B kept the show going and performed more of their discography including “ Camellia ,” the English version of “ Coming Home ,” “ Domino ,” and of course, their latest title track “ Medusa .” JUST B and ONLY B were having so much fun, it seemed neither of them wanted the night to end, but unfortunately the show came to a wrap with JUST B’s ending ments and performances of “ Youth , ” and “ Paper Plane, ” as an encore. The members picked up cowboy hats from ONLY B in the crowd adding the perfect Texan feel to the final stages.  Overall, it was truly a night to remember and we are counting down the days to see JUST B in Texas, once again.  Check out our full gallery photographed by Deborah R. K Fuse would like to give a huge shoutout to The K Stage Team for the amazing job they're doing with this tour, and an even bigger thank you to the K Stage Team, BLUEDOT Entertainment, and the members of JUST B for allowing us to provide coverage for JUST B's '2024 Just Be With You' Tour.

We headed to the wonderful state of Florida this past week to attend Just B ’s first American tour, “Just Be With You”. The six members, Lim Jimin, Geonu, JM, DY, Bain, and Sangwoo, Just B started the week’s festivities with an appearance at a local K-Pop store, Kpop Kastle . At the event, fans were able to ask questions, take photos with the group, as well as have some of their questions answered during a Q&A. The small setting of the store made for an intimate venue for both fans and the group. The event as a whole was a great way to interact with the boys before show day. The staff at Kpop Kastle and Kstage made it an enjoyable time for fans due to their constant communication.  After a restful night of sleep, it was show day and the streets were filled with Just B’s fans, Only B. Due to the outside location of the Miami Beach Bandshell, the sounds of excited fans and tracks from Just B’s discography were the background music of the day. Looking around the venue, multiple fan designed signs and merch could be seen. Showcasing their love for each member. The group came out on the stage ready to give an amazing performance. The group started the show off with " Get Away ," a hard hitting song with a heavy rock inspiration. From the first beats of the song, fans were going crazy for the group's passionate dance moves and immaculate vocals. After their second song, " Make It New , " the group took a break to individually introduce themselves to the fans who had come out to support. After a few more group songs, we were graced with solo performances from DY, Bain, and Lim Jimin. DY performed a self-choreographed dance to the song " Wonder " by Shawn Mendes. This performance showed off his dance and acrobatic skills as he seemed to glide across the stage. Lim Jimin followed with a dance cover to " Don't Go Insane " by DPR lan. Accompanying the original choreography, he incorporated a piece of the dance that was choreographed by himself. This stage exuded confidence and power as Lim Jimin used a belt prop for part of the choreography. To wrap up the solo stages, Bain performed a cover of " Beggin '" performed by Màneskin. This stage was electric showcasing Bain's vocal talent and endurance as he moved around the stage as well as going through the crowd for part of the song. The emotion Bain displayed during his performance could be seen through his facial expressions and deliverance of verses. The group then came back on stage to perform a cover of " Depacito " by Luis Fonsi. This choice of song took the fans by surprise. Causing cheers and hollering immediately as the song began. The group performed seven more tracks from their variety of albums. These songs included an unreleased track titled, " Daddy's Girl ." This track channels the group's pop punk side displaying true rockstar vibes. I look forward to hearing this song on the group's next project! Just B created memorable moments with fans during their show in Miami. Having fun and creating a bond on and off the stage. This group is comprised of members that were born to be on stage! If given the opportunity, I would see this amazingly talented group an uncountable amount of times. They deserve immense support as they continue blazing their own trail while staying true to themselves and their fans! You can find our full gallery of JUST B's performance in Miami here K Fuse would like to thank the team at Kpop Kastle, Bluedot Entertainment, the members of JUST B, and The K Stage Team for allowing us the opportunity to provide coverage for JUST B's Tour.

On a sunny spring day, JUST B was eager to meet their fans in the second stop of their 2024 JUST Be With You Tour - and the first on Latin American soil. JUST B is a six-member boy group -- consisting of Geonu, Bain, Lim Jimin, JM, DY, and Sangwoo -- who made their debut on June 30, 2021, under Bluedot Entertainment. Despite their recent debut, their fans knew members beforehand as they participated in the famous survival shows  Under Nineteen  (2018) and  I-Land  (2020). The performances during these two survival shows were a common topic between ONLY B (JUST B's fandom name), who began to line up as early as noon to meet their past picks and present biases. The venue surrounded by palm trees, was the perfect spot for JUST B to have a preview of Puerto Rican life. With fans dressed to the nines, the anticipation was on the rise! However, before JUST B would take the stage in front of concert attendees, they hosted a short press conference with local media outlets as they talked about the tour and participation in MNet's " ROAD TO MAX " project.  K Fuse: This is only the second stop of your "JUST BE WITH YOU" Tour. Are there any places you're looking forward to visit while you finish out the tour?  JUST B:  For the restaurant we went to yesterday, it was up on the hill. So, we were able to see the city view from up there, and we would love to go further up to see more views! K Fuse: "JUST B was part of MNet's "ROAD TO MAX" project, where -- through fan votes -- you were announced as the winning artist that would be presented with the opportunity to perform a special stage at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS! Could you elaborate on what that experience was like for you?” JUST B:  It was such an awesome and precious experience because we could get more familiar with our fans. Our fans voted for us to have a bigger stage to perform on, so the first thing that we want to say is that we thank you, and we are so grateful to you! If we have another chance like that, we promise to show a better stage than that one. Puerto Rico is known to be a lively crowd, and this came to life as a ten-minute countdown began at 6:50 PM. Fans were greeted by a special stage performance by the dance crew, with choreography directed by Impulse, that led to the official opening VCR of the concert. As the VCR ended, JUST B took over the stage with “ Get Away ,” which proved to be a perfect pick for an energetic night -- with the lyrics, “JUST B in the building,” the members showed their energy and prepared the fans for what was to come. JUST B maintained the crowd hype as “ Make it New ” and “ RE=LOAD ” played one after the other -- solidifying their stage control. Fans were screaming phrases like “Go off, king!” and “Slay!” while jumping up and down to the sound of the music. After the first three songs, JUST B took the time to talk to the audience and express how happy they were by being a in Puerto Rico. They expressed one by one what they'd done in Puerto Rico so far and commented how amazed they were by the crowd reaction. Some of the members, like Bain, introduced themselves in Spanish which earned higher screams from ONLY B. The concert continued with high energy songs such as " Try ," " Don't Go Back ," and DAMAGE ," as the crowd waved their light sticks to the sound of the music. They stopped for a short period to interact with ONLY B, this time with a random play dance. during this segment, the members Geonu, Lim Jimin, and Bain danceed to G-IDLE's " Super Lady ," with JM joining later. Sangwoo, JM, and Geonu gathered to dance to LE SSERAFIM's " Easy ," earning the crowd's approval. DY, Lim Jimin, Geonu, and Bain covered Taemin's "Guilty ," making the crowd go crazy! Bain then go onto cover Tyla's " Water " -- water effects included. Other songs the members danced to are ATEEZ's " Crazy Form ," and DPR Ian's " Don't Go Insane " which described how the crowd was felling at this point. With this same excitement, the members' Geonu, JM, and Sangwoo performed their solo stages for the night. Following Geonu's cover of M.O.P's " Ante UP ," the stage illuminated in a captivating blue light and smoke which made JM's honey-like voice stand out as he sang Wave to Earth's " Seasons ." Sangwoo showed his krumping skills by freestyling Chris Brown’s “ Back to Love ” which took the crowd, and security guards, by surprise as he got down the stage and went around the venue to get closer to ONLY B. This followed a break where member Lim Jimin hinted at his solo stage in the city of Miami. All 6 members then covered the famous song “ Despacito ” originally sang by Puerto Rican singers Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee. Puerto Rican ONLY B sang to each word of this song by heart.  The concert concluded on an uplifting note with songs “ ME=(NANEUN) ,” “ Medusa ,” and “ Paper Plane ” being performed. On this last song the members took the Puerto Rican flag and waved it around the stage showing their admiration and gratitude to the Puerto Rican crowd. Geonu also took from a fan the Puerto Rican national baseball team’s cap and wore it during the last part of the song.  Although the show ended, the night was not over as the high touch and snapshot session remained as the last fan engagement activities. ONLY B had the opportunity to high five the members and take polaroids with their favorite members! This was a great chance for ONLY B’s who had general tickets to convey their love to JUST B.  JUST B will continue their spring 2024 tour in Dallas, Denver, Monterrey and, closing on March 31st in Los Angeles.

Welcome back, #SoundLovers🎶!   Our team had an amazing opportunity to host an exclusive interview with K-Indie Artist, Juju B. Goode -- who took time to also talk about his latest single release, "Mr. Lee." We love both your stage name and remix of Tears for Fears' "Everybody Wants To Rule The World" which was featured in XO, Kitty, as a fan of classic entertainment, especially 80s cinema and music. Did you grow up consuming this kind of content?  Yes, you're absolutely right! I have a deep appreciation for 80s entertainment, especially classics like Back to the Future, which I watched religiously after school for a period. Sci-fi and analog gears were also major influences during my upbringing. We read that you used to work full-time in marketing. Do you have any advice for someone who would like to transition careers? Yes, I used to work in marketing, but it wasn't really about transitioning my career. Marketing was fun, but deep down, I always knew I wanted to pursue music. I initially thought I could balance my day job with producing music on the side, but eventually, my passion for music and my desire for adventure took over, and I had to follow my heart. Congratulations on your new single release, "Mr. Lee!" Can you tell readers about its concept and the creative process behind it? Thank you! In essence, Mr. Lee represents all of us going through this journey. Musically, it's a groovy disco-pop track with a surprise twist towards the end. My main intention was to create music that gets people dancing and singing along and produce something that feels like an adventure. You  announced on Instagram that you're dropping your debut album Smile! You're On Camera on October 13. Can you give us any spoilers as to what to expect?   Perhaps how is it like or different from your previously released EPs?  There are 10 tracks on the album, and each one has its own style and moment. Much of my previous work was loop-driven with a lo-fi vibe, whereas this album is more dynamic and follows a linear storytelling and production approach. It takes listeners on a journey-it starts in one place and ends somewhere else. What is your current biggest influence as an artist? I'm currently in LA, and the experience of being in this new city has been exciting and super inspiring for me. Actually, yesterday I visited the Broad Museum, they have Keith Haring exhibition going on right now. KH is an artist I admire and delved into extensively during the pandemic. I love the vibrant use of color and youthful energy, but when you dive deeper, you find a rich tapestry of commentary and a quirky take on modern and pop art, which is something I want to have more in my music.  Your songs are written and sung in both Korean and English. Do you write all in one language and translate later or is it mixed to begin with? I mostly write them together from the beginning. I believe that certain melodies are better suited to specific languages. So I take cues from the melody and write in Korean or English lyrics to match it. On your TikTok, you posted a clip, saying you animated the music video for your song "Ending Fairy." Do you have any more talents we might not know about? I made a character with a close friend, Han Na Kim. We were working in a small cafe in Seoul, messing around with Photoshop, experimenting with various shapes and colors. We honestly didn't expect to come up with something as cute and attractive, so we take a lot of pride in it. Later on, Han Na introduced me to her friend, Mincheol Kim, a highly talented 3D artist, who brought the character to life through animation and 3D design for the music video. Is  there a message you want to send / leave for your fans? I'm planning to host a listening party and organize more live shows this year. I'm really looking forward to finally meeting all of you. Thank you for your incredible support and love. I hope you'll enjoy the next one as much as my previous work! :-) Keep up with Juju B. Goode on social media for updates on his listening parties and live show schedule. Interviewed by Tiffany S. Written by K Fuse

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.

JUNNIVERSE were purely " Obvious " that they were all set to meet JUNNY here in Atlanta. On Tuesday, September 13th, 2022 the lights went dim and a powerful, echoing roar from eager fans began to fill the upstairs loft here at Center Stage in Atlanta, GA. It was within that moment that JUNNY lit up his first stage with " Color Me ," which was undeniably a favorite amongst the hyped up crowd. The notorious ATL bark was heard loud and clear as the spirited singer-songwriter performed back to back tracks from his newest album. Blanc was the first full studio album released on August 12, 2022 by the Korean-Canadian soloist. It is a nine track album that draws on the artist's own life experiences which makes his first North American tour, sharing the same title, a more intimate experience overall. Throughout the self-reflecting setlist he didn't forget to admirably mention other artists, JAY B and pH-1 , who have assisted him along his journey. He even eagerly asked Atlanta JUNNIVERSE to sing JAY B's verse during his performance of Nostalgia where you could hear some Aghases, in attendance, enthusiastically fulfill this request. The 16-track setlist almost seemed too short to the crowd who knew every lyric to every song. It didn't matter if it was one of his newest or an old favorite like " Not About You " or " For the Weekend ." Even the soft sentimental stages of " Aura " and " By My Side " received a substantial amount of intense cheers, applause, and the popular ATL barks! But the humble JUNNY did not forget his devout fans as he closed this chapter of his still ongoing tour with his song of genuine gratitude, Thank You. As he quickly left down those same stairs that he first used to greet his Atlanta fans, he made sure to return to the stage one final time to autograph phones, signs, and even arms of several lucky fans before saying his final goodbye. Just like Blanc was intended to tell the story of JUNNY as "... an empty white canvas, taking in all sorts of colors that eventually create who I am ," All in attendance that night were taken along a similar journey with the talented singer-songwriter. A night that began on an empty stage that eventually took on many different colors creating one of the most fun, artistic, and memorable concerts of the year!

ARTMS returns with " BURN ," a long-awaited track that every LOONA fan will instantly recognize and cherish.
