The rising seven-member K-pop group WHIB has achieved a significant milestone in their career by successfully completing their first-ever solo fan concert to a completely sold-out audience, just two years after their official debut.
The highly successful event, held on November 30 at Sungshin Women’s University, was titled ‘2025 WHIB 1st Fan Concert ‘AnD : New Chapter” and featured two fully sold-out shows—one in the afternoon and one in the evening.
This dual success underscores the group’s accelerating popularity and solidifies the dedication of their growing fanbase, known as AnD.
The Triumph of ‘AnD : New Chapter’
The concert’s title was carefully chosen to signify a fresh beginning and a deeper connection between WHIB and their fandom.
Serving as the group’s first official event presented as a complete seven-member unit with their dedicated fanbase, the full-house attendance at both performances is a strong metric of WHIB’s rapidly increasing appeal and their ability to mobilize their supporters.
Selling out both shows at a major university venue, two years into their career, confirms their strong commercial viability and potential for rapid growth within the competitive K-pop landscape.
The show was structured to be a dynamic celebration of their journey so far and a promise of what is to come.
The opening was a high-energy spectacle, featuring tracks like “BANG OUT” and their debut single, “DIZZY.” The comprehensive setlist included other fan favorites such as “Rush of Joy,” “Play,” “KICK IT,” and “BANG!”

The highlight of the concert for many fans was the exclusive content WHIB prepared. The group treated the audience to a surprise performance of an unreleased song titled “Make it,” creating significant buzz and giving fans an intimate, forward-looking glimpse into their new music.
Beyond their original tracks, the members showcased their versatility and stage presence through impressive special stages.
These included a synchronized dance cover of “Sweaty” and a full-group rendition of ENHYPEN’s “Outside,” a performance that drew particularly loud cheers from the energized audience.
The concert was not just a showcase of musical talent; it was a testament to the members’ strong teamwork and engaging personalities. Interactive segments, including lively talk and game sections, allowed the members to connect with AnD on a more personal level.
They shared trainee stories, highlighting their journey, and took on entertaining K-pop challenge missions, fostering a sense of community and closeness.
Surprise Comeback Announcement and Global Plans
The emotional climax of the evening occurred during the encore, where WHIB performed the track “Still typing.. (subtitle: blank).”
In a heartfelt closing, the members expressed profound gratitude to their fans for their unwavering support and encouraged them to “keep writing new chapters together,” signaling their long-term commitment.
