AHOP is turning up the anticipation for their comeback with a mature and captivating look.
F&F Entertainment released the third set of individual concept photos for AHOP's second mini album The Passage on October 27 through the group's official social media accounts.
The images evoke the mood of a high-fashion magazine shoot. Unlike previous versions that used natural backdrops like a woodshop and open fields, this series focuses entirely on each member's individuality and presence.
Their intense gazes stand out, capturing the emotional depth of youth teetering between boyhood and adulthood. The concept hints at a more mature and introspective side of AHOP to be revealed in the new album.
The Passage expands on the group's coming-of-age narrative. Inspired by the fairytale Pinocchio, it traces the journey of a boy growing into adulthood.
While their previous release Who We Are portrayed incomplete youth, this new work captures the resilience and rawness of "rough youth," exploring the space between innocence and experience.
AHOP's The Passage will drop on November 4 at 6 p.m., followed by a comeback fan showcase at 8 p.m. the same day.
