XLOV, a rising four-member K‑pop boy group under 257 Entertainment, is mounting a major 2026 Asia‑Pacific tour with plans to extend to the Americas, including North America, giving international EVOLs some of their first chances to see the group live.​

About XLOV

XLOV (엑스러브, often stylized in all caps) is a South Korean boy group formed by 257 Entertainment, known for a sleek, modern concept and strong performance-driven tracks. The group consists of four members—Wumuti, Rui, Hyun, and Haru—who have quickly gained attention for their chemistry on stage and their blend of pop, dance, and club-ready sounds.​

Introduced in December 2024, XLOV officially debuted on January 7, 2025 with the single album “I’mma Be,” marking the beginning of an intense release schedule that positioned them as one of the most talked-about rookie acts of 2025. The fandom has coalesced around the group’s bold, slightly edgy image and high-energy tracks, with international listeners picking up on XLOV early through streaming platforms and curated playlists.​

History and career so far

After their pre-debut introduction on December 17, 2024, XLOV launched officially less than a month later with “I’mma Be,” a single album that included the title track, its instrumental, and two remix versions that highlighted their club and techno influences. The release performed solidly on Korean charts, helping them build a domestic base while also showing up on international K‑pop discovery playlists.​

In mid‑2025, XLOV returned with their second single album “I One,” led by the title track “1&Only,” supported by “1 of Lov” and “Bizness,” plus instrumentals for each song; this comeback coincided with a refreshed, flame-inspired logo that signaled a more intense era conceptually. By late 2025, they escalated momentum with their first mini album “UXLXVE,” a six-track project that broadened their sound palette and set the stage for larger-scale activities, including regional and international tours.​

Discography overview

XLOV’s discography is compact but already shows a clear sonic identity centered on bass-heavy production, addictive hooks, and performance-focused arrangements. Across one mini album and two single albums, they have built a small but cohesive body of work that lends itself well to concert setlists and remix culture.​

  • “I’mma Be” – 1st single album, released January 7, 2025, featuring the title track “I’mma Be,” its instrumental, and two remixes (88 Techno Remix and Dark House Remix).​
  • “I One” – 2nd single album, released June 13, 2025, led by “1&Only” with B‑sides “1 of Lov” and “Bizness,” plus instrumentals for all three tracks.​
  • “UXLXVE” – 1st mini album, released November 5, 2025, including “Scent,” “Rizz,” “Dirty Baby,” “Biii:-P,” “Kiss and say goodbye,” and “Drip Drip,” consolidating their reputation for darker, moodier pop.​

2026 Asia‑Pacific tour and fan meets

The 2026 Asia‑Pacific tour marks XLOV’s first large-scale regional touring cycle, supported by promoter HY LIVE and label partner Quarter Music. Official promotional materials and social posts confirm that the tour will cover multiple Asia‑Pacific cities with dedicated concert dates and fan meet components, designed to bring EVOLs closer to the group through hi-touch, Q&A segments, and exclusive merch.​

Promotional channels have also teased that XLOV’s 2026 schedule will extend beyond Asia‑Pacific into the Americas, with wording explicitly mentioning “Asia-Pacific & Americas” and “touring Asia-Pacific & Americas this 2026,” signaling planned stops in North and South America. While detailed North American venue lists, cities, and dates have not yet been publicly confirmed, the campaign language positions the Asia‑Pacific leg as the launchpad for a broader world-touring phase.
