Preparing backstage for the second night of their TROUBLESHOOTING Showcase in LA, K-Rock band Xdinary Heroes buzzed with excitement and anticipation, ready to deliver another unforgettable performance to their devoted fandom, Villians.
Xdinary Heroes, comprised of members Gun-il (Drums), Jungsu (Keyboardist), Gaon (Rhythm Guitarist), O.de (Synthesizer), Jun Han (Lead Guitarist), and Jooyeon (Bass), is a six-member band under JYP Entertainment that was formed in hopes of bringing a new sound to the K-Pop scene. Since their debut in 2021, Xdinary Heroes has been making waves in the industry with their unique blend of genres including, but not limited to, rock, metal, alternative, and pop-punk. Combined with their instrumental prowess, Xdinary Heroes have continuously set themselves apart from their peers with their cohesive and distinct sound.
Soon, the lights in the venue dimmed. Each member walked towards their respective instruments, and the crowd’s cheers grew louder and louder, causing the venue to shake before songs were even performed. They kicked off the night with high-energy performances of fan favorites like “Boy Comics" and "Break the Brake," creating a one-of-a-kind atmosphere.

In between sets, the members would also challenge one another to execute key moments from their songs, like guitar solos, to show again to the crowd. Not only was it a means to connect the artist and fans, but it also showcased the individual talents of each member, while highlighting how cohesive they are as a team working in harmony to produce a sound that is truly unmatched. As the night progressed, they performed more fan favorites like "Strawberry Cake" and "Money on My Mind," which left the concert-goers jumping and dancing to their favorite songs.

Yet, one of the highlights of the showcase was their ballads stages, which made the crowd shed tears with their sincere deliveries. Songs like “Good Enough,” "until the end of time," and "Dreaming Girl" deeply resonated with fans as the lyrics held significant meanings such as self-doubt and struggles to make it in an industry that doesn’t want you. You could tell that these were heartfelt songs to the members as their level of passion shifted during these performances.

The showcase soon concluded with songs “Test Me” and “Bicycle” to close the evening on a high note. The fans’ cheers soon flooded the venue as they sent off the members, with some fans expressing an underlying reluctance as their departure marked the end of their set — but this wasn’t the end. Faint chants to bring them back began to ring out, and in due time, their requests were answered as the members headed back on stage to perform their debut single, “Happy Death Day.” After a few more remarks, thanking their fans for everything they’ve done for them, Xdinary Heroes officially closed the night with their crowd-selected finale, “Come into my head."
