Japanese boyband WATWING held their first solo concert, titled WATWING LIVE TOUR 2024 – Get Em Back – at Makuhari Messe, on November 9 and 10 at the huge Makuhari Messe venue in Chiba, just outside of Tokyo.
WATWING are the first boyband from Japanese agency Horipro. The group features six members who won the Star Boys Audition: Ryo Furuhata, Asahi Suzuki, Fu Takahashi, Rintaro Hachimura, Ryuta Kuwayama and Noa Fukuzawa Nozomi.
This year marks the 5th anniversary of their formation; the group kicked off the year with a sold-out show at the revered Tokyo venue Nippon Budokan in February.
They also held their first nationwide seven-city hall tour this year, titled WATWING LIVE TOUR 2024 – Get Em Back -, starting with a concert in Saitama Prefecture in August – a reminder of the group’s massive popularity in Japan right now.
On the final day of their pair of solo performances at Makuhari Messe, WATWING announced they are moving to a new label, +WHAX (pronounced “Plus Wax”). The group announced the release of their first digital single in winter 2024 and an EP next spring. They also unveiled an awesome new group photo.
WATWING profile
WATWING formed in June 2019, featuring six members who won the Star Boys Audition held to create Japanese agency Horipro’s first boyband. The members are Ryo Furuhata, Asahi Suzuki, Fu Takahashi, Rintaro Hachimura, Ryuta Kuwayama and Noa Fukuzawa Nozomi.
The group’s name is a portmanteau of “WAT” (slang for “what”) and “WING” as in the wings of a bird, expressing their desire to “stick to their true selves and soar no matter what anyone says”.
