P1Harmony brought the heat in Miami, marking their return to the city after two years when it was a stop on their “P1ustage H : PEACE” in USA tour. They came as a five-piece, missing member JiUng as he is back home in Korea recovering from an injury. We were reassured that he was doing well and that they were going to put on an unforgettable show for us. This was certainly true, as they did not disappoint at all.

The first song they performed was the new track ‘Street Star’, followed by ‘Emergency’ and ‘Everybody Clap’. Right off the bat, they showed their fiery energy and smooth moves. These are aspects that are synonymous with a P1Harmony performance.

Just about halfway through, we got the solo stages, a staple of K-Pop concerts everywhere, and a way to see each individual member’s style through everything from their fashion to song choice and arrangement. The first of these five songs was Theo’s rendition of ‘Until I Found You’ by Stephen Sanchez, complete with an electric guitar accompaniment and his unique, sweet vocals. The atmosphere of this was just gorgeous, with the venue transforming into a night sky dotted with stars. Following this was rapper InTak and his rendition of Victoria Monet’s “On My Mama”, which showed both his coolness and self-professed ‘hotness’. Next was JongSeob’s cover of A$AP Rocky’s ‘Praise The Lord (Da Shine)’, which fully displayed his swagger and prowess as a rapper. He just oozed cool and we are here for it. The fourth was KeeHo’s version of SZA’s radio hit ‘Kill Bill’, complete with a sword prop to match the lyrics of the song and a custom Miami Marlins jersey. Last was Soul’s explosive freestyle dance, which fans look forward to each time. Following this was ‘Pyramid’, a personal favorite high-energy song.

After the wholesome track ‘BFF (Best Friends Forever)’, leader KeeHo asked what they could do for the audience, quickly fulfilling song requests for fans who had a birthday. The show closed with ‘I See U’, ‘2Nite’, the tour’s premiere of the first album track ‘Nemonade’, and finally, ‘AYAYA’. Leader KeeHo kept mentioning how good it was to be back in Miami after two years and how he was grateful for the extra time that they were allowed in a city he loves. He talked about beach walks and the pleasures of the city, cementing a favorable impression of the city in his heart, and hopefully, it will become a stop on every tour in the years to come
