South Korean powerhouse ATEEZ, consisting of Hongjoong, Seonghwa, Yunho, Yeosang, San, Mingi, Wooyoung, and Jongho, made their highly anticipated return to Kuala Lumpur on March 22, 2026, bringing their ATEEZ 2026 WORLD TOUR [IN YOUR FANTASY] to Unifi Arena. Welcomed by their dedicated fandom, ATINY, the group’s return marked their long-awaited comeback to Malaysia following their appearance at KPOP Masterz 2025. This time, they held a full concert dedicated entirely to their fans.

The night was made even more special as it coincided with the Hari Raya festive period, with many fans arriving in traditional attire such as baju kurung and baju kebaya. Styled in coordinated red, black, and white tones, the outfits drew praise online for beautifully blending Malaysian heritage with the excitement of a global K-pop concert. Even before the show began, the arena was filled with anticipation, as fanchants echoed across the venue while fans eagerly awaited the group’s appearance.

A High-Energy Show with Powerful Stages

ATEEZ wasted no time in setting the tone for the night, opening with the explosive BOUNCY and I’m The One, immediately igniting the crowd. The energy continued with Blind and Man on Fire, as the group delivered powerful vocals and sharp choreography against striking visuals and dynamic stage production.

The concert flowed seamlessly into a mix of group and solo performances, beginning with Yunho’s Slide to Me and Seonghwa’s Skin, followed by WE KNOW and Yeosang’s Legacy. The atmosphere reached new heights during Guerrilla, as fans chanted “break the wall” in perfect unison, creating a defining moment of connection between ATEEZ and ATINY.

Wooyoung’s Sagittarius and Jongho’s emotional To Be Your Light highlighted the members’ individuality, while Turbulence brought a more sentimental shift to the set. The group then transitioned into Lemon Drop and Shaboom, accompanied by a live band segment that added another layer of energy to the performance.

San captivated the audience with his intense solo stage Creep, before the group returned with Outlaw, maintaining the concert’s momentum. Hongjoong’s NO1 along with Mingi’s AUTOBAHN and ROAR further showcased their unique styles, leading into fan-favourite tracks such as WORK, Ice On My Teeth, and In Your Fantasy, followed by an ATEEZ medley that kept the crowd fully engaged.

As the concert approached its final stretch, Now This House Ain’t a Home and Enough created a more emotional atmosphere, allowing both the members and fans to reflect on the night. Despite the high-energy performances, the concert remained well-organised throughout, with fans fully immersed while maintaining a respectful and lively environment.
