Boy group Nine (AHOF) has demonstrated its global growth momentum.

Nine (Steven, Seo Jeong-woo, Cha Woong-gi, Zhang Shuai-bo, Park Han, Jael, Park Ju-won, Zuen, Daisuke) successfully concluded '2026 AHOF 1ST TOUR: THE FIRST SPARK IN MANILA' (2026 Nine 1ST Tour: The First Spark in Manila, hereinafter 'THE FIRST SPARK') at the SM Mall of Asia Arena in Manila, Philippines, on the 25th and 26th.

This performance drew intense interest as it marked a reunion with Manila fans following their first fan concert held last year. Responding perfectly to the expectations of 10,000 local fans, Nine presented a packed setlist that showcased their growth from their debut album to their recently released third mini-album.

Lush new song stages also drew attention. Nine performed the title track 'RUN TO YOU' and the album track 'JUST SAY YES' from their third mini-album. In particular, the stage for 'JUST SAY YES,' which was unveiled for the first time at the Manila performance, sparked explosive reactions as all audience members stood up from their seats to jump along together. Empowered by the fans' enthusiastic response, the members delivered an 'encore encore encore,' performing the song three times in a row, pushing the energy to its peak.

After the concert ended, Nine stated, "We were happy to perform amidst the passionate cheers and synchronized singing of POHA (their fandom name). It was two unforgettable days." They added, "POHA is the driving force behind our constant hard work. We will become artists who never forget the love we receive from you and always repay it," conveying their sincere feelings.

Nine kicked off their first Asian tour, 'THE FIRST SPARK,' in Seoul last May. By successfully concluding performances in a total of five cities—Osaka, Tokyo, Kuala Lumpur, and Manila—they demonstrated their even greater global influence.
