SEO EUN KWANG, LEE MIN HYUK, LIM HYUN SIK, and PENIEL BTOB’s will be meeting with their fans on the occasion of their 13th debut anniversary. YOOK SUNG JAE and LEE CHANG SEOB will not be present for this fan meeting.
BTOB’s agency BTOB Company released the poster “2025 BTOB FAN-CON ‘3,2,1 GO! MELympic‘” on its official social media service and announced the opening of the event. The “2025 BTOB FAN-CON ‘3,2,1 GO! MELympic‘” will be held at the Olympic Hall in Seoul Olympic Park for three days from October 21 to 23. This is the first time in about three months that the four members will hold a solo concert, since “Be Alright” was held in December last year.
The released poster immediately attracted attention as it shows BTOB running forward against the backdrop of a stadium’s running track. The blue color symbolizing BTOB and the bright smiles of the four members raised expectations among fans, signaling the clear and refreshing charm that the members will show at the fan concert in March when spring begins.
Four members under BTOB Company, SEO EUN KWANG, LEE MIN HYUK, LIM HYUN SIK, and PENIEL, released a total of three new songs through “BECOMING PROJECT” in October last year, “Be alright” in November, and “이보다더좋을수 있을까” in December.
There are disagreements among BTOB fans over the use of the group name “BTOB” for this fan meeting. Furthermore, with LEE CHANG SEOB‘s personal performance announced for the first time, opinions were divided as all four BTOB members will be holding the performance on the same day.
In response, BTOB Company, the agency of the four members of BTOB, stated, “BTOB Company is a label created in the hope that the name ‘BTOB’ can stay with fans forever, and has signed a formal contract to use the trademark and copyright of ‘BTOB’. However, we would like to inform you that new trademark registration and new activities are not possible in a form similar to the name ‘BTOB’. As a result, BTOB Company’s activities will inevitably be carried out under the group name ‘BTOB’ rather than a new unit name.“
Regarding the controversy over the concert overlap, the agency stated, “We became aware of the problem of concert schedule overlapping and considered various possibilities to coordinate the schedule, but it was difficult to change the schedule due to realistic restrictions such as the rental issue. Finally, after much discussion, BTOB Company decided to hold the concert as scheduled,” adding, “BTOB Company takes the issue very seriously and is conducting multilateral communication to prevent similar issues from happening in the future. With this opportunity, we will prepare BTOB and our fans’ precious time more carefully,” and promised to prevent this from happening again.
