QWER first fan concert, ‘1, 2, QWER!’, will take place on November 25–26 at the YES24 Live Hall in Seoul. Fans can expect live performances and interactive activities, celebrating the group’s chart-topping hits and major 2024 music awards. While excitement builds, debates about the venue’s capacity highlight differing opinions on the group’s growing popularity.
QWER Announces First Fan Concert with Revealing Poster
QWER has unveiled the poster for its inaugural fan concert, ‘QWER The 1st Fan Concert: 1, 2, QWER!’. The poster showcases the members lounging comfortably around a keyboard, reminiscent of their debut profile picture. This imagery highlights the special significance of the upcoming event, blending nostalgia with excitement. A heart-shaped puzzle piece inscribed with the phrase “Be My Last Piece” symbolizes the concert’s emotional connection with fans, hinting at their vital role in completing QWER’s journey.
Debut Fan Concert Promises Unforgettable Moments
The title ‘1, 2, QWER!’ is inspired by lyrics from their hit song, ‘T.B.H’. This fan concert marks QWER’s first live event since their debut and promises interactive segments alongside performances of their signature tracks. Fans can anticipate a unique experience as the group aims to foster closer connections through music and engaging activities.
QWER Gains Recognition and Dominates 2024 Music Awards
In 2024, QWER solidified its position as a leading girl band with back-to-back chart-topping releases, including ‘T.B.H’ and ‘My name is Malguem’. Their song ‘T.B.H’ earned the title of YouTube’s most popular Korean song of 2024. Additionally, QWER received accolades at major events like the K-World Dream Awards, Korea Grand Music Awards, MAMA Awards, and the Melon Music Awards, cementing their impact in the Korean music scene.
Concerns About Venue Size for QWER Fan Concert
The concert is scheduled for November 25–26 at the YES24 Live Hall in Seoul, with ticket sales opening on October 30 through YES24 and KREAM. However, fans on MLBPARK have expressed concerns about the venue’s capacity. The YES24 Live Hall accommodates 2,037 attendees (1,051 seated), which some feel is too small. Fans suggested larger venues like the Olympic Gymnastics Arena with 15,000 seats. While some argue QWER could fill such a venue, others cite the group’s male-heavy fanbase and the predominantly female customer base of Korea’s music market as limiting factors.
Balancing Expectations with Strategic Planning
The most balanced opinion is that QWER should start modestly, considering this is their first fan concert. Without existing data on turnout, hosting the event in a mid-sized venue allows for strategic growth based on audience response. This pragmatic approach seems to align with the current consensus among fans. As QWER embarks on this milestone, their fans eagerly await an unforgettable experience.

“QWER does not seem to perform overseas at all. They should at least hold concerts in nearby Japan. There are already QWER fans in Japan, and performing there would help them gain even more fans.
