[Review] AHOF – WHO WE ARE – a Heartfelt and Harmonious Debut

There’s a new rookie group in town! AHOF — short for All-time Hall Of Famer — is the latest boy group to debut under F&F Entertainment, formed through the survival show ‘Universe League’. The top 9 finalists became the official lineup: Steven, Jeongwoo, Woongki, Shuaibo, Han, JL, Juwon, Chih En, and Daisuke.

With their debut mini-album ‘WHO WE ARE’, AHOF is ready to show the world their vocals, emotions, and identity. Let’s dive into this impressive debut release!

WHO WE ARE

The EP opens with ‘The Little Star’, a charming intro track with sweet vocals and soft instrumentals. Inspired by the classic children’s song “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star”, it sets a nostalgic, heartwarming tone for the album.

Next is ‘The Universe’, a lighthearted, vocal-rich track. The whistling, harmonies, and playful ad-libs shine throughout, offering a fun and sweet showcase of the members’ vocal strengths in a relaxed and bright setting.

The title track ‘Rendezvous’ brings in dreamy band instrumentals and a slightly angsty emotional core. Vocally rich and atmospherically nostalgic, it delivers expressive performances both in sound and visuals. The music video complements it beautifully — dreamy, introspective, and filled with heartfelt expressions.

‘Incompleted’ blends R&B and pop with smooth vocal tones and elegant transitions. The members impress with emotional delivery and seamless pacing — one of the more intimate highlights of the album.

‘Cosmic Underdog’ adds a fun twist with a synth-driven arrangement, catchy falsettos, and energetic rap sections. It’s light, upbeat, and full of personality.

The mini closes with ‘AHOF’, the group’s namesake outro track. This single features multilingual messages from each member, a unique and thoughtful way to wrap up their debut.

‘WHO WE ARE’ is a solid and emotionally resonant debut from AHOF. With rich vocals, thoughtful compositions, and heartfelt delivery. Make sure to listen to this release here.
