ALL(H)OURS: A Rising Force in K-Pop, Celebrated by MEKKA Magazine

As part of our ongoing AAPI Spotlight Series, MEKKA Magazine is thrilled to recognize the burgeoning talent of South Korean boy group ALL(H)OURS. Hailing from EDEN Entertainment, this dynamic septet has quickly carved a space for themselves in the competitive K-pop landscape since their debut on January 10th, 2024, with their initial mini-album, ALL OURS.

The formation of ALL(H)OURS is particularly noteworthy due to the guiding hand of Cho Hae-sung, the visionary behind EDEN Entertainment. With a distinguished past as the former vice president of JYP Entertainment, Cho Hae-sung played a pivotal role in the success of globally recognized groups like Stray Kids, TWICE, and ITZY. This pedigree suggests a strong foundation and keen understanding of the industry, further solidified by EDEN Entertainment’s recent integration as a family label under JYP Entertainment in January 2025.

The name ALL(H)OURS itself carries a dual meaning, cleverly blending “all ours” with “all hours.” This reflects the seven members – KUNHO, YOUMIN, XAYDEN, MINJE, MASAMI, HYUNBIN, and ON:N – unwavering dedication to their craft, promising to consistently give their utmost in every endeavor.

Their impactful debut year did not go unnoticed. ALL(H)OURS garnered significant recognition, securing nominations for Best New Male Artist at three of the industry’s most esteemed award shows: the 2024 MAMA Awards, the 32nd Hanteo Music Awards, and the 39th Golden Disc Awards. These nominations underscore the group’s promising start and the industry’s anticipation for their future.

Building on their initial success, ALL(H)OURS released their third mini-album, SMOKE POINT, on February 4th. This release was followed by their first fan concert tour, “ALL the HOURS,” which saw them connect with fans in Seoul, Tokyo, and Hong Kong. The momentum continues as ALL(H)OURS is set to extend their reach, meeting international fans in Taipei and across Europe throughout May and June. For those eager to catch their European performances, further details can be found through updates from Studio PAV.

MEKKA Magazine applauds ALL(H)OURS for their dedication, talent, and rapid growth within the K-pop scene. Their unique name, coupled with the experience behind their formation and their early accolades, positions them as a group with significant potential. We eagerly anticipate witnessing their continued journey and future achievements.
