TIOT Ignites Osaka with “My Pride” Offline Fan Event!

Get ready for an electrifying experience as the dynamic K-pop boy group TIOT announces a special offline event in Osaka, promising an unforgettable encounter for their dedicated fanbase. Organized by BUSAN DEPART, this event at Namba Marui is set to be a vibrant celebration, featuring exclusive fan interactions like “Life4Cuts” photo sessions, personalized autograph events, and even a unique “Store Manager” appearance by the members themselves.

TIOT, a five-member South Korean boy group formed primarily from participants of the popular audition program BOYS PLANET, debuted in April 2024. Their name, an acronym for “This Time Is Our Turn,” encapsulates their fierce determination and ambition, a spirit that resonates deeply with fans worldwide. Their music and performances have quickly garnered a passionate following, eager for opportunities to connect with the artists.

Exclusive Fan Experiences Await

The highlight of this event is the diverse range of fan interaction opportunities. Fans can participate by purchasing TIOT’s 4th Mini Album, [MY PRIDE] (Photobook ver.) (Random Ver.), priced at 3,700 yen (tax included). Each album purchase not only grants a BUSAN DEPART exclusive unreleased selfie photo card (one random from five types) but also guarantees participation in a lottery for one of the special fan events. There are no losing tickets in this lottery, ensuring every fan who purchases an album will get to engage with the group.

The special events include:

  • Life4Cuts Photo Session: A unique 1:1 photo opportunity with a random member using the popular Korean photo booth style, “Life4Cuts.” This brand, which has taken Korea by storm with over 590 stores, allows fans to capture spontaneous, high-quality four-panel photos, akin to a modern, more candid version of Japanese purikura. It’s a cherished way for fans to create lasting memories with their idols.

  • Individual Autograph Session: A chance to get a signature from a random member on the purchased album or a special photo card.

  • Individual 2-Shot Session: Take a personal 2-shot photo with a random member using your own smartphone, capturing a close-up moment.

  • All-Member High-Touch Event: An exciting opportunity for a high-five with all TIOT members, with smartphone photography permitted during the high-touch session.
