Former BTOB member Jung Ilhoon made a surprise return to the stage in Jakarta on June 27, marking his first official visit to Indonesia in about eight years. Around 1,000 fans attended the impromptu shopping mall performance, where he performed five songs including his single “She’s Gone” and his new track “Glory.”
A long-awaited comeback
Ilhoon’s career was put on hold after a 2021 conviction for purchasing and using drugs. Five years later, he reappeared publicly in Jakarta, and the surprise set was met with praise from fans who have long awaited his return to performing.
Memorable live set
During the short show Ilhoon performed five songs, with the audience singing backing vocals throughout the set. He also made an appearance at a local K-Pop club, further delighting attendees and supporters in the city.
Media buzz and local interest
Videos of the Jakarta performance quickly circulated across social media, generating significant local attention. Reports indicate that Indonesian media outlets, broadcasters and content creators have approached Ilhoon with requests for interviews and collaboration opportunities following the event.
