Cha Eun-woo of boy band Astro will tour Asia for his first in-person meet-and-greet sessions in three years, according to his agency Fantagio on Sunday.

Starting with Indonesia on July 23 and followed by Thailand, the Philippines, Singapore, Japan and Korea, Cha will host his solo fan meet tour titled “2022 Just One 10 Minute 〈Starry Caravan〉." The session will also include talk sessions with fans and special performances.

Fantagio revealed the poster for the event through its social media on Sunday, which shows Cha dressed in denim from top to bottom, sitting at the entrance of a camping van, matching the concept of going on a camping trip to meet fans.

Cha has been hosting fan meet sessions branded "Just One 10 Minute" since 2019 when he toured Hong Kong, Taiwan, Bangkok, Manila and Kuala Lumpir. The meet-and-greet session aims to show all of Cha’s charms in just 10 minutes.

Due to the pandemic, one session was held online with fans from 150 countries in June 2021.

Cha debuted in 2016 as a member of boy band Astro, known for songs "Crazy Sexy Cool" (2017), “Blue Flame” (2019) and “One” (2021). The band recently dropped its third full-length album "Drive to the Starry Road" in May. He is also active as a solo singer and actor and has starred as the lead role in the JTBC series "My ID is Gangnam Beauty," MBC's "Rookie Historian Goo Hae-ryung" (2019) and tvN's “True Beauty” (2020-21).
