Drama Digest
A famous and well-known boy band originating from South Korea, this Korean band was made in 2017 and released their first work, an EP. They have successfully released a studio album, seven EPs, two Japanese releases and a repackaged album.

The Feel-Good Part
The best thing is the script of games and surprises this series contains. Being new to the entertainment industry due to being formed fairly recently, the musicians and performers handle the show’s aesthetics correctly, successfully in making and portraying good understanding and trust with each other. It also helps them gain a platform for new audiences to get interested in their music and produce potential fans for this boy band. It not only entertains the audience but gives them good values and enjoyment by watching the show.
The Disappointing Factor
The biggest flaw of the show is the factor of how short this series is. It could be less to know and connect with a new boy band. As it is a fairly new boy band with not much experience in the industry, it could be pretty challenging to gain traction as many people are not interested in watching shows which are based on unknown and fresh faces to them. The musical segment of the show is missing some parts and there are games and challenges being performed by the group members of the group. It would have added more amazement if more musicians collaborated in the show.
In-Depth Analysis
This type of show’s framework has helped many fresh and known dancers of various levels to connect with the audience and their music reach new ears. While this series has become successful in “launching” ONF on a global level, it has also been winning the fun and exciting fragment. While the rewards may sound unnecessary, it fills the void between them and the audience, which indirectly helps their musical career and helps them stay relevant in the business. They give their best to reach the global sensation level, and this show catapults their success.
Star Power
This boy band has been famous in almost every project they have worked on till now. They debuted in the studio album sphere with their first album, ONF: My Name, with the lead single, “Beautiful Beautiful”. Then, they came with the second EP, You Complete Me, after their debut EP, On/Off, on June 7, 2018 with lead single “Complete”. They also came up with the third EP on February 7, 2019, with lead single “We Must Love ”. Their first reissue release “City of ONF” came on April 28, 2021. Every song they have made has been successful in making their group sound more musical and smooth to listen to.
Overall Opinion
It is a worthwhile watch for someone who loves to unravel and explore contemporary kinds of music from new musicians and who end up becoming potential fans.
