To commemorate their nine-year journey as a group, the popular South Korean boy band ONF hosted a special anniversary busking event on August 1, 2026.
Held at the lively Seoul Land plaza located in Gwacheon, Gyeonggi Province, the surprise performance gathered crowds of dedicated fans, known as FUSE, as well as park visitors enjoying the summer festivities.
The outdoor concert served as a intimate gift to their supporters, allowing the group to celebrate their longevity, express their gratitude, and showcase their vocal and performance talents in an open-air, interactive setting.
During the busking event, ONF treated attendees to a varied setlist that highlighted key releases throughout their career.
The group performed several fan-favorite tracks, including “Open The Door,” “Escape,” “Summer Poem,” “The Stranger,” “Complete,” and “Beautiful Beautiful.”
The energetic live vocals and dynamic stage presence captivated the audience, turning the amusement park plaza into a vibrant concert atmosphere.
In addition to their song lineup, the members carved out time to engage directly with the audience through interactive segments.
A highlight of the busking show was a playful balance game played alongside the crowd.
The members sparked laughs and cheer by weighing in on lighthearted choices, such as debating whether they would prefer riding a terrifying amusement park attraction five times in a row or spending an entire day relaxing on the carousel.
To end the anniversary gathering on a high note, ONF surprised fans with an encore stage performance of “Summer Ssoak.”
Demonstrating their closeness with the crowd, the members stepped off the main stage and moved directly through the audience while singing, creating an unforgettable, up-close memory for everyone present.
Looking ahead to their future path together, the members delivered a heartfelt promise directly to their supporters during the event, emphasizing their long-term commitment as a group:
“We still have much time to show you, so we will continue to come back with good music and performances.”
