It had only been just over a year since Apink last met fans in Singapore, but the energy inside Arena @ EXPO on April 4 felt like no time had passed at all. The group returned with the 2026 Apink Asia Tour <The Origin : APINK> in SINGAPORE, picking up right where they left off after their 2025 concert, and the crowd was more than ready.

From the moment the lights went down, Apink leaned into what they do best, blending nostalgia with fresh moments. Early into the night, they took fans back with a run of their classic hits. Songs like “I Don’t Know”, “MYMY”, “Mr Chu”, “NoNoNo”, “LUV”, and “Remember” turned the venue into a full singalong. The response was immediate and loud, with fans echoing every lyric, proving just how timeless these tracks have become.

Then came one of the night’s standout surprises. The members appeared in sharp black suits, switching up their image completely for a cover of Mirotic by TVXQ. The performance brought a sleek and confident edge, showing a different side of the group that drew cheers across the arena. It was a reminder of their versatility and how comfortably they can move between concepts.

Of course, Apink did not hold back on the fun. In one of the most talked-about segments, the group transformed into a playful “boyband” version of themselves, calling it “Agreen”. The unexpected switch had fans laughing throughout, adding a lighthearted break between the more polished stages.

The connection with fans remained at the heart of the night. The members shared that it had been 1 year and 2 months since their last visit, and were visibly surprised to see so many familiar faces. When they asked who had attended their previous concert, a sea of hands went up.

One fan moment quickly became a highlight. A male fan shouted “MICHIODA” (It's Crazy), drawing laughter and reactions from the group. Jung Eunji especially leaned into the moment, playfully shouting “crazy, crazy” back at him as a compliment, with the fan responding in kind. It turned into a spontaneous exchange that had the entire crowd entertained.

Kim Namjoo also brought her own humor, joking that while they once had a “cute cute” image, they were now showing a more grown and bold side. The comment had fans laughing as the members themselves struggled to keep a straight face. Meanwhile, Oh Hayoung warmed the audience with an English speech, sharing her gratitude for the support in Singapore and expressing hope that the night would become an unforgettable memory.

The crowd matched the group’s energy at every turn. Fanchants rang loudly throughout the venue, with a noticeably strong presence of male fans adding to the volume. Before the photo session, fans surprised Apink with a VCR tribute, followed by a banner event. It was a simple but meaningful gesture that captured the long journey shared between artist and fans.

While the night leaned more towards celebration than sentimentality, it never lost its emotional core. Apink’s return to Singapore felt easy, joyful, and full of personality, balancing polished performances with genuine, unscripted moments. More than a decade into their career, Apink continue to prove why their bond with fans remains strong. In Singapore, that connection was loud, playful, and very much alive.

Singapore experienced the spectacular showmanship of CNBLUE on 20 March 2026 at The Star Theatre.

From the onset, CNBLUE captivated the audience with dynamic performances, kicking off the night with ‘Ready, Set, Go!’, ‘Catch Me’ and ‘Racer’. 

In a series of witty anecdotes, the trio shared that they had their first HaiDiLao in Singapore, craving something spicy like Mala. Bassist, JUNG SHIN also highlighted his enjoyment of the Sichuan-style beef and beancurd skin roll.

There is ‘Nothing’ like a CNBLUE concert! BOICEs were living up to their name by singing along to every song as if it came naturally like ‘Intuition’. CNBLUE was far from ‘Lowkey’ when it came to showering fans with praises for being the best crowd. Every stage triggered a ‘Domino’ of cheers, louder than the previous. It was clear that BOICEs were in ‘LOVE’ with the band’s set list.

It’s the ‘Little Things’ that highlight the band’s sincerity, making them even more cherished— such as the drummer, MIN HYUK, picking up Singlish catchphrases  ‘Chiobu’ and ‘Yan Dao’ to connect with Singapore BOICEs, appreciating fans who know the band’s signature concert chant, Every.Body.Jump (에.바.뛰), as well as giving a special shout-out to their interpreter, April, during the show.

A standout moment was the fanproject where BOICEs prepared lighted roses for ‘Still, a Flower’, illuminating the entire theatre in a mesmerizing glow. During an interactive performance of ‘Killer Joy’, BOICEs sang along with YONG HWA’s directing, showcasing their unspoken strong chemistry.

MIN HYUK: Thank you for making this night unforgettable. I’m going to miss this energy so much. We will see you again before you know it. Thank you for bringing me to this stage with your voices, I’m truly and deeply happy right now. We will be back again soon, just wait a little! I love you Singapore, cheers!

JUNG SHIN: Thank you so much for coming to our concert. We know it’s not always easy to be here. We truly believe that none of these will be possible without your time, passion, and love, that’s why we did not prepare this lightly. We put our whole hearts into it (the stages). We were so happy today, let’s see each other more often from now on. Thank you so much Singapore! Okay lah!~

YONG HWA: We are so happy to meet you again today. We had so much fun! With the energy you gave us tonight, we will wrap up the tour strong. Thank you for your screaming, your love, support, everything! And thank you JJ (JJ Lin) for the good coffee. Thank you lah Singapore. We gonna meet you again very soon okay!

‘I’m a Loner’ and ‘YOU’RE SO FINE’ brought a strong sense of unity ‘Between Us’ all, as everyone chorused to the iconic hits for the encore. Throughout the concert, the band promised to be back ‘Again’ in Singapore and even suggested to hold a 5-day concert here. 

Spurred by fans’ enthusiastic chants for more, CNBLUE delivered ‘In My Head’ and ‘Cinderella’ in a special encore.
