JYP Entertainment's boy band Xdinary Heroes (XH) took the stage as the opening act for the British rock band MUSE during their concert in Korea.
On September 27, Xdinary Heroes performed as special guests at the 'MUSE LIVE IN KOREA' concert held at the Incheon Munhak Stadium, setting the stage for the global super band.
The six members, Gunil, Jungsu, Gaon, Ode, Jun Han, and Jooyeon, kicked off the opening with tracks like 'Money On My Mind,' 'LOVE and FEAR,' and 'FiRE (My Sweet Misery),' elevating the atmosphere of the venue.
They continued with a diverse setlist including 'FEELING NICE,' 'Enemy,' 'Man in the Box,' 'Young, Shy, and Foolish,' 'MONEYBALL,' 'Diamond,' 'iNSTEAD! (Feat. YB Yoon Do-hyun),' and 'Beautiful Life,' showcasing their wide musical spectrum and proving their prowess as a talented rock band.
Leader Gunil, who has consistently named MUSE as a role model since their debut, shared, "It became one of the most memorable moments of my life. Even after the stage ended, my hands, arms, and legs were trembling. I feel relieved as if I poured everything I prepared. Seeing the members smiling brightly on stage made me truly happy." Jungsu added, "It was really exciting and thrilling to share Xdinary Heroes' music with so many people. We are determined to work hard to become a legendary band like MUSE." Gaon expressed, "MUSE is the best in the world! MUSE fans are the best in the universe! I will never forget this."
Ode commented, "It was an honor for Xdinary Heroes to perform at the opening for MUSE, who are muses to many. I want to thank everyone who enjoyed it with us." Jun Han shared, "Performing in front of so many people was special, and their enthusiastic response was deeply moving. I don't know how to express my gratitude to MUSE for this opportunity. I want to continue bringing joy through music." Jooyeon added, "It was an honor to share the stage with MUSE, musicians I admired since childhood. This experience has fueled our desire to grow and perform on bigger stages with more Villains (fandom name)."
