The group AHOF showcased a fairy-tale-like visual.
AHOF (Steven, Seo Jeong-woo, Cha Woong-ki, Zhang Shuai-bo, Park Han, JL, Park Joo-won, Zeon, Daisuke) released the first concept photo of their second mini-album ‘The Passage’ through their official SNS channel on the 21st at midnight.
This new album is inspired by the fairy tale ‘Pinocchio’. AHOF reflects themselves in Pinocchio, who transforms from a wooden puppet into a human, depicting the process of growing into adulthood.
The released group, unit, and individual concept photos evoke the mood of the fairy tale ‘Pinocchio’. In particular, the concrete walls and wooden props on the workbench create a feeling reminiscent of the workshop where Pinocchio was born.
In the photos, AHOF exudes a free-spirited atmosphere as they roam around the studio. The members are seen engrossed in holding wooden pieces or conceptualizing something. The calm and serious expressions of the eight members reveal a more mature side of AHOF.
Previously, AHOF sparked various speculations about the story contained in their new album with the mood film for ‘The Passage’. Through this concept photo, they visually express the fairy tale that serves as their inspiration, heightening interest even further. Curiosity is amplified about what new aspects of AHOF will be revealed in ‘The Passage’, which expands the narrative of youth.
AHOF will release their second mini-album ‘The Passage’ on November 4th, marking their first comeback since debut. In their previous work, they depicted an incomplete yet infinitely possible story of a boy. This time, they will showcase their growth from boyhood to adulthood.
Moving forward, AHOF will sequentially unveil their scheduled promotions, ramping up for their comeback.
