Hwasa set Seoul ablaze over the weekend as she held her much-anticipated first solo concert, proving exactly why she reigns as a true “solo queen.”

On January 17 and 18, fans packed Kyunghee University’s Peace Hall for the 2026 HWASA CONCERT <MI CASA>, where the star delivered a powerhouse showcase of everything she’s honed since her debut 12 years ago.

Opening with a bold, band-backed performance of HWASA, she instantly took command of the stage. The energy surged with “I Love My Body” and “Chili,” prompting the hall to erupt in chants of “Ahn Hye-jin!”

A special rearranged segment brought a sophisticated twist: jazz renditions of Shim Soo-bong’s “I Don’t Know Anything But Love,” Beyoncé’s “Fever,” and “NA,” highlighting Hwasa’s ability to switch seamlessly between raw emotion and powerhouse vocals.

Her hits “LMM,” “Maria,” and “Good Goodbye” were transformed into sweeping spectacles through orchestral collaborations—moments that could only truly be felt live.

The momentum never dipped. After cutting through “Fool,” “Kidding,” and “EGO,” she launched into a pop medley featuring “DIVA” and “Toxic,” then closed the encore with a nostalgic medley of Mamamoo classics—signature sensuality, confidence, and charisma on full display.

Mid-concert, Hwasa opened her heart to the crowd.

This is my first solo concert since my debut,” she shared. “I can’t even tell you how much I’ve gone through to stand here today. I overcame it, and now I’m here—with you. Every single one of your footsteps is precious to me.

She added, “This moment won’t last forever, and that’s why it means even more. I’ll keep working hard at what I have to do.”

Her words drew roaring applause.

Star-studded guests elevated the atmosphere further: Ahn Shin-ae and Loco appeared on Day 1, while Wheein and Crush joined on Day 2, adding depth and excitement to the already electrifying stage.

Hwasa wrapped the night with the original version of “Good Goodbye,” delivering a final, resounding statement of her artistry—bold, intentional, and unmistakably Hwasa.
