ONEEW to hold solo concert 'Q' in Tokyo and Seoul

Onew's New Side in a Poster Filled with Analog Sensibility

SHINee member Onew is set to face his fans on stage once again. At midnight on the 15th, Onew officially released a poster via his official SNS channels announcing his solo concert, '2026 ONEW CONCERT [ONEW THE LIVE : Q]'.

In the poster, Onew stands in a space filled with analog objects symbolizing music, such as cassette tapes, MP3 players, and headphones. His appearance, exuding a deeper gaze and a calm atmosphere, hints at the musical color this performance aims to achieve. This concert is an extension of 'ONEW THE LIVE', a brand concert that concentrates on Onew's unrivaled live performance capabilities. Having expanded his fandom beyond Asia to the Americas and Europe through the first series 'Percent (%)' held from 2025 to 2026, Onew is now ready to showcase an even more solid musical world through this performance.

The Answer Found in 'Questions', a Musical Journey to be Unfolded on Stage

The subtitle of this concert, 'Q', was inspired by the word 'Question'. He plans to dramatically unfold on stage the journey of constantly asking himself questions as an artist and finding new musical answers through those questions. Moving beyond a simple live performance, it carries a strong character of a 'musical memoir' that pierces through the musical life Onew has walked over the past 10 years. The core of the stage is the process of sharing raw, unrefined emotions and traces of intense contemplation with the audience while searching for Onew's unique musical answers.

The concert schedule will take place throughout September and October. It will kick off in Tokyo, Japan, from September 22 to 23. Following this, he will meet fans directly in Seoul from October 30 to November 1. By using the QR code included in the poster, fans can get a preview of various promotional contents that will be released sequentially.

Onew has been loved by the public for his signature warm vocals and delicate sensibility. As he has consistently delivered sincere performances based on his solid vocal skills, fans' eyes are focused on what kind of musical resonance he will deliver through this theme, 'Q'.
