Japanese pop phenomenon JO1 recently embarked on their first-ever visit to India, leaving behind a trail of excitement, warmth, and unforgettable memories. Known for their chart-topping hits, electrifying performances, and ever-growing global fandom, JO1’s debut trip to India highlighted the power of music to transcend borders and connect cultures.
From the moment they arrived, members Mame and Shosei were showered with love. Fans greeted them at the airport with traditional garlands, posters, and chants, creating a festive atmosphere that instantly set the tone for their stay.
Visibly moved by the warm reception, Mame shared, “I had always heard that Indian fans are full of energy, but experiencing it in person was something else. The love we received here touched my heart deeply. I want to come back soon and perform for all our fans in India.”
Shosei added, “India has such a vibrant culture and kind people. From the moment we landed, everyone has been so welcoming. Saying ‘Namaste’ and seeing the smiles it brought was a very special moment for me. I feel a strong bond with our Indian fans already.”
The duo also took time to explore Indian culture, expressing admiration for its traditions, cuisine, and warmth. Their humble gestures especially greeting fans with folded hands in a heartfelt “Namaste” won hearts on social media, where clips of their interactions quickly went viral.
This visit marks a significant milestone for JO1 as they continue to expand their international footprint. For Indian fans, it was not just a star encounter, it was the beginning of a cultural exchange built on music, respect, and love.
