ENHYPEN’s Sunghoon Gains Praise For The Special Way He Comforted Ni-Ki At Recent Concert In Osaka
ENHYPEN‘s Ni-Ki got understandably emotional toward the end of the group’s recent concert in Japan, but luckily Sunghoon was right there for him.
The group recently wrapped up the last day of their ENHYPEN WORLD TOUR ‘MANIFESTO’ in JAPAN with a must-see concert at the historic Kyocera Dome Osaka.
The group reportedly saw 80k fans attend, making ENGENE proud of how far the members have come.
ENHYPEN sold out two nights at the historic Kyocera Dome Osaka with around 80k fans in attendance.
The boys are making history as the first 4th Gen group to perform at the legendary venue. 🥳

One member, in particular, had fans feeling touched, and that was Ni-Ki. Having grown up dreaming of performing at the most legendary venue in his country with his own group, the concert in Kyocera Dome Osaka was understandably an overwhelming moment for him.

While Ni-Ki did not let his emotions get the best of him, fans loved how Sunghoon still made sure to comfort him: when Ni-Ki wrapped up his ment, Sunghoon came up to him and, putting an arm around him, told him that it was okay to cry.
ENGENE really appreciated the gesture. After all, this was one of the biggest moments in Ni-Ki’s life!
"ni-ki, it's okay. you can cry" thank you for telling that ni-ki, sunghoon 🥹pic.twitter.com/SSzHWJDBiO

Despite it being only January, ENHYPEN have proved they are already having a great year. They have not only reached a huge milestone by performing in Osaka, but they are doing so after truly cementing themselves as the main event at the recent Prada fashion show in Milan Fashion Week.
With Ni-Ki turning heads in Milan with his model-like visuals and gentlemanly manners and now achieving a lifelong dream at the Osaka concert, he’s out to prove that this will be his year!
Watch his full speech at the concert right here.
“thank u to all ENGENE who have helped our dreams come true…It has been a dream to stand on this stage like this. I don't think it would come true, that I could debut as ENHYPEN is thanks to ENGENE.”
