AOA announces first fan meeting in 3 years

Girl group AOA will hold their first local fan meeting in nearly three years on June 30.

The group took a hit when their member Park Cho-a made a sudden and unexpected exit from the group due to insomnia and depression in June 2017, but AOA has returned as a six-member group.

AOA dropped an EP last month titled “Bingle Bangle,” their first release since “Angel’s Knock” in January 2017.

AOA surprised everyone when their recent EP quickly shot up the music charts even after their long break and member change. They held onto the top spot on some weekly charts for three weeks.

AOA made their debut in 2012 with their EP “Angels’ Story,” and rose to fame in 2014 with their hit songs “Miniskirt,” “Short Hair” and “Like a Cat.”

The fan meeting, titled “T(W)O ELVIS,” will be held at Sungkyunkwan University’s New Millenium Hall, and tickets can be purchased through Auction.
