P1Harmony and AMPERS&ONE closed 2025 with gratitude for fans ringing louder than any audience encore could — as well as an ambition to make this year even bigger.
Both signed under the major Korean pop and rock label FNC Entertainment, P1Harmony enlisted their juniors AMPERS&ONE to open for the U.S. leg of the P1ustage H: Most Wanted World Tour, which not only saw P1H play their first-ever arenas in the States but also included a rare move for the K-pop scene of including an opener when most artists only perform their show. While the two boy bands debuted three years apart, the fast-paced K-pop industry shows how quickly artists can grow, with P1Harmony now filling arenas after AMPERS&ONE played their first U.S. theater tour in early 2025.
“It’s cool to be one of like the first teams to do this because it is a great opportunity for us,” says Kyrell, one of two Seattle natives in AMPERS&ONE, of performing as an opening act on a K-pop tour. “I think it’s something that happens a lot more in shows that are not K-pop, so I think it’s interesting that it didn’t happen in previous K-pop shows — like, why did it happen sooner? It makes it feel a little more special.”
P1Harmony will officially close their latest world tour with three concert dates from March 6 -8 at Seoul’s Ticketlink Live Arena, officially marking the end of one era ahead of releasing new music later that month.
“We’re preparing to showcase our albums in the best way we can,” P1H’s Jiung says, with his bandmate Soul adding that fans should “get ready for the next chapter to show you something new.”
Despite their career differences, P1Harmony and AMPERS&ONE share an unshakable sense of gratitude for their fans as they gear up for new projects with them this year.
“We can’t wait to spend another amazing year with you guys in 2026,” P1Harmony leader Keeho says with Theo adding, “We hope you’re able to do everything you wish for in 2026 — and above all, stay healthy. Let’s give it our all and make 2026 a great year together!”
“Without ANDEAR, there’s no AMPERS&ONE,” Seungmo, the group’s youngest member, says of their fanbase, while Siyun shares, “In the future, we’re hoping to perform on bigger stages so that more ANDEARs can come and see us. So we hope you wait just a little bit. We love you and please look forward to that.”
And for AMPERS&ONE’s Jiho, he says his experiences on tour capture and reaffirm why he pursued the K-pop path in the first place.
“ The last Asia and U.S. tour was a moment for me to realize how many people were cheering for us and listening to our music,” he says. “That gave me so much more motivation to go on as an artist and a K-pop idol. Sometimes we have hard times even [when] practicing at our company or practice rooms. Sometimes we want to do and be on more stages even when we’re preparing for the comeback. But on and after the stage, I just feel, ‘This is why I selected and why I chose to be an artist and K-pop idol.’ It just makes me so happy. So, we’ll keep working hard for our ANDEAR and keep making good music and stages.”
