From Seoul to Singapore, Bangkok to Kuala Lumpur, these talented boys have been captivating audiences with their infectious energy, impressive dance moves, and undeniable charm. Fans, known as “AROHA,” have flocked from near and far to witness Astro’s stellar performances.
The journey began in May 2023 with a series of sold-out concerts in Seoul, the group’s home base.

In Bangkok, Thailand, Astro’s performance was praised for its intricate choreography and captivating stage presence. AROHA’s dedication was evident as they sang along to every word and showered the group with handmade banners and gifts.
Singapore proved to be another hot spot for Astro, with thousands of fans packing into the venue. The highlight of the night was a surprise guest appearance by Singaporean singer-songwriter, Charlie Lim. Together, they performed a beautiful acoustic rendition of Lim’s hit song “Bitter Love,” showcasing Astro’s versatility and musical talent.

But behind the glitz and glamor of the tour, there lies a story of hard work, perseverance, and unwavering friendship. The members of Astro – MJ, JinJin, Cha Eun-woo, Moonbin, Rocky, and Sanha – have been together since their trainee days, supporting each other through thick and thin.
Their journey wasn’t always easy. They faced countless challenges, from rigorous training schedules to intense competition within the K-pop industry. But they never gave up on their dream, constantly pushing themselves to improve their skills and strengthen their bond as a group.
One particularly heartwarming story revolves around member Cha Eun-woo. Known for his striking good looks and undeniable talent, Cha Eun-woo initially struggled with stage fright. However, the unwavering support of his fellow members helped him overcome his fear and blossom into the confident performer he is today. His journey serves as a testament to the power of friendship and teamwork, reminding us that even the brightest stars need a little help from their friends to shine their brightest.
As Astro’s “Starlight” Asia tour comes to an end, one thing is certain: this is only the beginning for these talented young men. With their infectious music, captivating performances, and unwavering dedication to their fans, Astro is destined for even greater heights in the years to come.
