Pentagon, IZ*ONE go online for fans

Boy band Pentagon and girl group IZ*ONE will meet their fans next month, both online.

Pentagon will hold an online fan meeting dubbed “PENTAG-ON AIR" on Sept. 6.

"We hope to share special moments by communicating more closely with Universe [as the band’s fans collectively refer to themselves] around the world," the band’s agency Cube Entertainment said.

Girl group IZ*ONE will hold its first online concert dubbed "ONEIRIC THEATER" on Sept. 13.

It is the first concert by IZ*ONE in 14 months, since its first solo concert in June 2019.

"We will introduce more realistic content using augmented reality (AR) and extended reality (XR) technologies," said the group’s agencies Off the Record and Swing Entertainment.

Tickets for Pentagon's fan meeting will be available from 2 p.m. on Aug. 6 and tickets for IZ*ONE's online concert will be available from noon on Aug. 11 through Interpark Ticket.
