K-pop star Wonho, celebrated for his electrifying performances and close bond with fans, has announced his first U.S. fan meetup tour as a solo artist. 2024 WONHO USA FAN MEETUP <WELCOME BACK WENEE> marks a significant milestone as it will be Wonho’s first visit to the U.S. since completing his military service.

The <WELCOME BACK WENEE> tour promises an intimate experience for fans, celebrating Wonho’s return and the special connection he shares with them. Wonho will host six exclusive fan meetups, taking place alongside his iHeartRadio Jingle Ball performances in Dallas, Detroit, Chicago, and Miami, offering his devoted WENEE fanbase a rare opportunity to reunite with him after nearly two years apart.

Born Lee Hoseok on March 1, 1993, Wonho debuted as a soloist in 2020 under Highline Entertainment with his acclaimed EP Love Synonym Pt. 1: Right for Me. The EP, led by the hit single “Open Mind,” highlighted Wonho’s vocal range and emotional depth, establishing him as a dynamic solo artist. His music, exploring themes of love, yearning, and self-growth, continues to resonate with fans worldwide.

Beyond music, Wonho is known for his commitment to fitness, frequently sharing his journey and inspiring fans to embrace healthier lifestyles. His regimen has even caught the eye of Men’s Health, which featured him as a fitness icon. Additionally, Wonho is recognized for his bold fashion choices, with InStyle noting, “No One Is Doing K-Pop Fashion Better (or Sexier) Than Wonho.” As a singer, songwriter, producer, fitness inspiration, and fashion trendsetter, Wonho is a multifaceted artist with an international following.

Wonho’s fan meetup tour and Jingle Ball appearances mark an exciting new chapter in his career, celebrating his return to the global stage and the powerful connection he shares with his WENEE.

Since his solo debut in 2020, Wonho has been making waves worldwide. His first album quickly topped the Worldwide iTunes Album Chart, reached high positions in iTunes rankings across 30 countries, and scored well on Billboard’s World Digital Song Sales Charts. Wonho’s impact on the U.S. market has been highlighted by publications such as Billboard, Buzzfeed, PAPER Magazine, Entertainment Tonight, Cosmopolitan, Access Hollywood, iHeart, and Rolling Stone, which praised him as “one of the most versatile and compelling voices in K-pop today.” Less than a year after his debut, Forbes recognized Wonho as one of “The K-Pop Solo Stars Who Could Break In America In 2021.
