On Wednesday, October 29, 2025, K-pop boy group 1Verse visited DEALL. The group was in Columbus for their performance on October 30, 2025. Three of the five members (Kenny, Aito, and Nathan) held a Q&A session with DEALL and other OSU students. Kenny shared about he grew up in Chinese and American culture in California and his journey into the music industry; Aito, who is from Japan, shared his path to the K-pop industry; and Nathan, from Arkansas, described how he was recruited. Their producer, Michelle Cho, spoke about how the group was formed and provided insights into the music and entertainment industry. The session was attended by about 60 students.
