Singer Park Ji-hoon, known as a former member of disbanded Wanna One, is holding fan meet-and-greet events in Japan next month.

On Aug. 18 and 20, “2022 Park Jihoon Special Fanmeeting in Japan” will take place in Tokyo’s Nakano Sunplaza hotel and Kobe’s Kobe International House, both two times per day, at 2 p.m. and 6 p.m.

It has been two and a half years since Park last visited Japan to meet with fans. To make up for the lost time, Maroo Entertainment said that the fan events will be “filled with special performances and various events” and will run for “a full 120 minutes.”

Tickets go on sale exclusively for fan club members starting today, and regular tickets go on sale on Aug. 11.

Park competed in the second season of Mnet’s audition program “Produce 101.” He came in second place among 101 trainees and became a member of the boy band Wanna One from 2017 to 2019. After Wanna One’s disbandment, Park has focused on acting and releasing music as a solo artist.
