“Our music will go on.” ONF is back after 548 days of their journey. ONF who have been growing while weaving in and out of many boundaries - human and machine, light and dark, confidence and sarcasm – are finally back with their seventh mini album LOVE EFFECT. Now they are boldly reaching out their hand for love. ONF is here to introduce their latest offerings, from their new lead single “LOVE EFFECT” that is as fresh as their new beginning, as well as the rest of the album that reflects the group’s wide musical range. The members also share their favorite songs to listen to this season with FUSE who have stayed unwavering by their side.

ONF - ​“LOVE EFFECT” 

Hyojin: I think it's a song that goes great with the gentle autumn breeze! I hope that FUZE enjoy the fall weather while they listen to “LOVE EFFECT.”

 

E-Tion: It’s the perfect fall weather for driving, and this song is really comforting especially when you listen to it in the car with the wind in your hair.

 

J-US: The melody and sound that feels like the cool breeze is sure to lighten up your mood. I recommend that you listen to it before you begin your day!

 

Wyatt: It’s a song with a fresh melody which perfectly reflects who we are. It has a lot of what we wanted to say to our fans during our hiatus, so I hope that you give it a listen! 

 

MK: You can really hear who we are from this fresh song. It's the best song to listen to when you need to recharge your energy.

 

U: Here’s a dose of ONF’s bright energy for anyone listening to this song and FUSE! Don’t miss our performance that is filled with fun and carefree energy!

​ONF - “BE HERE NOW”

Hyojin: This is a song that we’ve prepared for our FUSE who have waited for us for a year and a half. I’m sure our FUSE will want to sing and dance all night long once you've heard this song!

 

E-Tion: I think this is a song that is filled with our unique stories and sentiments. I hope you listen to it while thinking of FUSE who have been waiting for us during our hiatus, and ONF who have been thinking about FUSE the whole time.

 

J-US: This is an ear-worm worthy song with a deep sound and rhythmic lyrics. It’s also a song about what we feel about FUSE, so I get all fuzzy inside whenever I listen to it.

 

Wyatt: “BE HERE NOW” is a fan song with the message, “ONF is always by FUSE’s side." It’s a fun song that gets me grooving to the beat, every single time I listen to it.

 

MK: It’s a song that gets more fun the more I listen to it. I also think that the lyrics perfectly capture our thoughts and feelings.

 

U: It is a message that we want to send FUSE who have been waiting for us over our long hiatus. I hope that you shed tears of joy, not sadness! 

​ONF - “DAM DAM DI RAM”

Hyojin: The performance is as amazing as the song itself! You’ll have twice the fun if you watch our performance while you listen to the music.

 

E-Tion: The crisp session and beats give you energy. It’s perfect for listening while you do a bit of cleaning or when you work out.

 

J-US: This is an intense song. It's best enjoyed along with the performance.

 

Wyatt: This song depicts our goals of wanting to keep going forward without ever stopping. I especially hope that people who have been following their dreams but had to stop listen to this song and get the energy to keep going.

 

MK: The addictive melody is really charming, and it comes with its own performance, so it captivates both your eyes and ears!

 

U: The strong base keeps up with the repetitive beat, so we put in a lot of thought and care into expressing the song in our performance. Also, listen out for the lyrics that's about ONF keeping fast to our path!

DAY6 (Even of Day) - ​“Right Through Me” 

Hyojin: The lyrics are amazing, and DAY6's powerful vocals are unmatched - it really feels like getting a huge weight off your chest!

d4vd - ​“Sleep Well” 

E-Tion: This is my favorite song at the moment. It’s really relaxing, and you’ll fall asleep if you listen to it before bed or after midnight.

​Dan + Shay - “Tequila”

J-US: I listened to this song a lot when I was a trainee, so this song takes me back. I wanted to share Dan + Shay’s unique feel with a lot of people.

Mingginyu​ - “Dear My All” 

Wyatt: If ever you feel exhausted from life, this song will console you. I recommend it because it feels like a cozy refuge.

​B1A4 - “After 10 Years” 

MK: I wonder where I’ll be in 10 years when I listen to this song. I get curious and excited. I hope everyone gives this song a listen!

​Jonas Brothers - “Wings” 

U: This is a pretty short song that only runs for about two minutes, but it has everything - rhythm, beauty, and cool vibes! The sound builds in complexity in the chorus while the beautiful melody pans out - and I think that’s the highlight of the song! FUSE💙 let’s listen to it together!
