EPEX Captivates Macau with Electrifying Youth-Themed Solo Concert
K-POP sensation EPEX (Wish, Keum, MU, A-Min, Baekseung, Ayden, Yewang, Jeff) brought their passionate energy back to Macau with their 2025 solo concert ‘청춘결핍 in MACAU’, held on May 3rd at the G Box at Galaxy Macau™. The group mesmerized fans in two back-to-back performances at 2PM and 7PM, continuing their global tour and youth-centered narrative.
This marks EPEX’s return to Macau just nine months after their successful fan concert tour ‘YOUTH DAYS’ in August 2023. With the upgrade to a full solo concert, the group elevated the experience with dazzling stage effects and a more diverse setlist that kept local fans riveted.
The concert resonated deeply with audiences as it incorporated tracks from EPEX’s dual full-length albums released last year, including title tracks ‘청춘에게’ and ‘UNIVERSE’. With this event, EPEX continued unfolding their story-driven trilogy albums about youth and societal pressures, wrapping the concert in a touching and immersive narrative arc.
The setlist offered both fiery and tender moments — intense tracks like ‘학원가’ and ‘Full Metal Jacket’ contrasted beautifully with emotional ballads such as ‘말할 수 있는 비밀’ and ‘안녕, 나의 첫사랑’, showcasing EPEX’s multifaceted artistry and musical growth.
Following previous successful shows in Seoul (December 2023) and Tokyo (March 2024), this was the third leg of their ‘청춘결핍’ solo concert series. The tour is set to continue in Taipei on May 24 and Fuzhou, China, on May 31. Notably, this Chinese performance marks the first time since the lifting of the Hallyu ban that a full K-POP group with all Korean members will perform in mainland China — a milestone fueling massive anticipation among Chinese fans.
EPEX is also set to drop a special collaboration on May 6 with American retro synthpop duo joan. Their upcoming digital single ‘so nice’ is expected to further solidify their global presence in both the music and performance arenas.
As May unfolds, EPEX continues to make waves across Asia and beyond, embodying the spirit of youth through their evolving artistic identity and unstoppable international journey.
