Rookie boy band AxMxP (AMP) successfully wrapped up their comeback showcase.
AxMxP released mini album 1, 'Amplify My Way' (Amplify My Way), at 6 p.m. on the 21st and made their comeback. Immediately after the release at 7 p.m. that day, they held the mini album release commemorative 'AxMxP Show: Inside the paradox' (AxMxP show: Inside the paradox) at Seoul YES24 Wonderock Hall and met with fans. This showcase was also broadcast live through social media channels such as YouTube, PlusChat and X (formerly Twitter), allowing more fans to join.
AxMxP opened the show with their distinctive hip-hop rock sound with the mini album 1 lead single 'PASS', album track 'Too Much', and 'Headbang' from last September's debut album and full-length album 1 'AxMxP', signaling the start of a powerful performance. In particular, the 'PASS' stage, unveiled for the first time in front of fans, drew a heated response with explosive band sound and Ha Yu-jun's powerful rapping.
Next, AxMxP shared the excitement of their comeback by introducing the album directly to fans. As this was the first reveal of the new album, they candidly said, "After our debut activities ended and we prepared this album, we really wanted to let you hear it as soon as possible. We're finally able to share it and we're so happy. Please join us for this promotion as well."
Next, AxMxP delighted fans and unleashed overwhelming energy with the SBS 'Spring of Youth' OST 'FIRE (FFWF)' and the debut album title track 'I Did It', then changed the mood with the album's second title track 'Thereafter' and the album track 'Bittersweet', and even 'White T-shirt' from the debut album, filling the venue with a wistful atmosphere with songs that were easier to listen to.
Stages showcasing AxMxP's bright and lovable charm continued. Album tracks such as 'I Melody You' (I Melody You), 'Punch-Drunk', and another title track from the debut album 'Shocking Drama' filled the setlist. The members introduced each track from the album between performances and shared episodes from the album preparation process, creating a rich experience.
The performance finale was adorned by member Kim Shin's first self-composed song included on the album, 'Be yours'. Through this song, which contains messages they wanted to convey to people they are grateful to, AxMxP expressed gratitude to the fans who waited for and supported their comeback.
After returning to the stage amid encore requests, AxMxP promised another meeting with the 'Spring of Youth' OST 'SEE YOU LATER' and the debut album track 'Monday To Sunday'. With a total of 14 songs including the encore, they completed a mini-concert-like performance and announced a vigorous comeback, saying, "We're so happy to start the new year with a comeback. We will be AxMxP who shows new sides on many more stages." After the performance ended, they conveyed their sincerity by seeing fans off directly through a hi-bye event.
Having successfully completed their comeback showcase, AxMxP will appear on cable channel Mnet's 'M Countdown' today (22) to perform the first music show stage of the title track 'PASS'.
