It was the first time the seven-man band – touted as the Avengers of K-pop because they’re made up of members from other popular groups EXO, NCT127, WayV and SHINee – had performed together.
The band had a slew of activities before the big show, including a 30-minute live Q&A segment in both Korean and English and a visit to their pop-up store in LA.
The group also announced its first North American tour called We Are The Future, which will kick off on Nov 11 at Fort Worth, Texas.
During the interview segment, they answered questions such as the dynamics of the group, to which Ten said it was a dream come true for him to work alongside his idol Taemin.
Band leader Baekhyun also shared the group’s goal, which is “to be the pioneers of K-pop and bring K-pop to the next level.”
