The group ENHYPEN will meet with fans around the world through its first VR concert.
ENHYPEN's first VR concert 'ENHYPEN VR Concert: Emergence' (ENHYPEN VR CONCERT: IMMERSION) will be released exclusively at Megabox COEX on the 8th.
'Emergency' is an interactive VR concert where the audience directly experiences ENHYPEN's stage in a virtual space where reality and fantasy intersect. In the ever-changing stage, such as a huge office, a closed factory, and a rooftop where pink doors and red doors coexist, the audience faces the members from a distance of only 0cm. Leader 'Garden' via Weverse Live "Took off the headset because it was too close" conveys a realistic review and raises expectations for a new immersive experience.

The VR concert features a total of eight VR concerts produced by AMAZE, including the pre-released 'Bite Me', 'XO (Only If You Say Yes)', and 'Highway 1009', boasting an unusual scale in terms of set-list composition. In addition, there are a variety of participatory elements, such as innovative interactions that reflect the audience's hand heart movements on the screen and 'Favorite Choice Branch Scene', which allows you to select and enjoy one of the seven members, providing differentiated fun that extends beyond the performance you see to 'experience firsthand performance'.
Prior to its official release, AMAZE released various contents sequentially, raising global fans' expectations. 'POV Teaser Video', which embodies the viewpoint of the audience wearing VR devices, received a hot response by giving a vivid moment as if facing an ENHYPEN. Also, members say, "Don't be surprised if I get too close to you", "It could be closer than you think" 'Shortform Video' was also released, which conveyed expectations with comments on the back. Marketing contents such as 'Stage Preview', which sensibly captures some of the concert space, also effectively conveyed the world view and immersion of ENHYPEN VR concerts, raising expectations of fans around the world.

In the midst of such high expectations, the 30-second trailer released today showed that "It was much closer than I thought, so it was fun.", "I hope you don't be shy with your engine friends and have fun."Members' messages were delivered, leading to a response from fans.
'ENHYPEN VR Concert: Emergence' will be released sequentially in about 40 cities in the United States, Japan, China, North and Central America, and Europe, as well as Korea, and is attracting attention as the largest global project ever for a VR concert by a K-pop artist. The collaboration between ENHYPEN and AMAZE, which has expanded its position on the global stage, presents a new direction for performance culture and opens up new possibilities in the way it connects with fans.
