Amid Raya celebrations, K-pop sensations ATEEZ (에이티즈) brought their “In Your Fantasy” world tour to Kuala Lumpur, marking their first solo concert in Malaysia. The show at Unifi Arena (formerly Axiata Arena) had many exciting moments and electrifying performances that local ATINYs (ATEEZ fans) will surely remember for years to come. Here are some of the most talked-about moments from the evening:
Yunho’s Birthday Celebrations

With the concert taking place just a day before member Yunho’s (윤호) birthday (23rd March 2026), it’s no surprise that the show saw many wishes for the birthday boy. The members and dance crew shared birthday wishes for Yunho during their performances, sometimes even surprising the idol with the spontaneous wishes.
The crowd also sang “Happy Birthday” at one point during the concert, making sure to show their love for the now 27-year-old. Later, towards the end of the show, Yunho thanked the fans for their birthday wishes, quipping that they’re his present for his special day.
Members Showing Off Their Malay Skills

Speaking of Yunho, the idol also showed off his Malay skills during the show. Right before the group walked onto the stage for the encore, he hyped fans up by asking, “Korang dah sedia? (Are you guys ready?)”. That simple question sparked a wave of cheers from the local ATINYs.
The other members also tried their hands at speaking Malay, particularly including casual phrases, earning praise from fans for their dedication. Another example that stood out was when Wooyoung (우영) gave his ending speech in Malay, saying, “Terima kasih sebab enjoy persembahan kami malam ni. Korang buat kami happy sangat, ATINY.” Of course, the members also charmed the fans by calling them “sayang” throughout the evening.
Solo Stages With A Show Of Respect To Locality

One of the highlights of the “In Your Fantasy” tour is the members’ solo stages. However, since some of these performances include a few rather risqué elements, many wonder how the idols would change things up during their KL show to respect local rules. As it turns out, the ATEEZ members did a wonderful job at adjusting their performance, making it both respectable and unique.
One example is Seonghwa’s (성화) solo performance for his song, “Skin”, where he switched out his usual, exposed, stage outfit for a snake-skin-patterned jacket and shirt combo. On stage, the singer also explained the change, saying he decided on the look to mimic a snake shedding its skin. Many praised the move, calling it considerate yet smart for its symbolism.
There are many more memorable moments from the show, from Hongjoong’s (홍중) “NO1” remix to Mingi (민기) getting up close with fans during his solo performance of “ROAR”. The members also promised to return to Malaysia soon, so let’s hope they keep to their words.
