Five Ways to Learn More about ONF before Their Be Here Now in Canada 2024 Tour

Though far from rookie status, ONF (aka On N Off) have never toured North America. Far past time to meet North American FUSEs (their fanbase), they’re heading to Canada via J&B Entertainment, and if you are anywhere near Vancouver, Montreal or Toronto, it’s time to get your tickets and your plans in order before they arrive next month!

Vancouver: February 27 Vogue Theater 

Toronto: March 1 George Weston Recital Hall

Montreal: March 3 Rialto Theater

If you’ve never heard of ONF, it’s past time to update your K-Pop playlists and start listening and watching. The six member group with HYOJIN, SEUNGJUN, E-TION, MINKYUN, WYATT, and U under WM Entertainment, the home of B1A4 and Oh My Girl, debuted in 2017. Since then, they’ve had many highly-rated hits. Within the last couple years, they took the risk of having all their Korean members head into the military simultaneously. They all came back ready with a new EP, LOVE EFFECT, and this upcoming tour. Here are just some of the ways to catch up with ONF and fall head over heels into them and check out our exclusive interview!

Listen to them sing about themselves!

All the ONF members answered who they are in their own charming song. The group has an interesting lineup as they’re split into “ON” and “OFF,” with each sub-group having its own leader (discussed in our video interview where they describe their roles). In the meantime, take a listen to “My Name Is.” Also, as of this year, MK and J-US now go as MINKYUN and SEUNGJUN, so time to update your concert signs and show love to their given names!

They’re the only K-Pop group whose Korean members served entirely simultaneously. Further, they went viral while serving!

Before their discharge, ONF went viral for doing a cover of NewJeans’ “Hype Boy” while serving at a show with fellow idol colleagues. The benefit of having the crew there all together means that they could, and did, perform as a group!

They are powerhouse performers coming second behind The Boyz in Road to Kingdom

In Road to Kingdom they performed in the show with The Boyz, PENTAGON, TOO, Golden Child, VERIVERY, and ONEUS. Coming out overall in second behind The Boyz within this impressive lineup, ONF showed that they were powerhouse performers. This is why this tour is going to be so epic. Check out their third round performance where they placed first covering “It’s Raining” by Rain!

They have multiple music videos that have tens of millions of views, so watch them again!

At the top is “Beautiful Beautiful,” the song that hit over 10 million views in a few days and is currently at about 18 million views. You might have also seen other people cover the song, most notably HANBIN from ZB1 in Boys Planet and BDC in Peak Time. “Popping” has 15 million, and their latest, “Love Effect,” has 11 million. Their discography is great and consists of self-composed songs as well. Take a listen as “Beautiful Beautiful” is bound to be on their setlist.

Watch their variety content!

As most idols that have been around awhile, there is a plethora of variety show content for ONF that you can find on their YouTube account. But their series Mini Game Heaven is particularly hilarious and you can see their true nature through the episodes. They were released on birthdays, and you can catch the one above from Minkyun’s special day.

Now that you’ve fallen for them, it’s time to see them live. Check out J&B Entertainment’s website for tickets, VIP Benefits, and the most popular polaroids. We hope to see you at the shows!
