Fans, gather your emotional support snacks – the JIB gods have heard your prayers. After a full year of you politely begging, manifesting, threatening to sell your furniture, and sending suspiciously specific hints online, JIB has finally done it. They’re bringing in one of Thailand’s most beloved pairs, the unstoppable duo: DAOUOFFROAD.

Yes, those two. Daou and Offroad, with chemistry so strong it could power Hilton Rome Airport’s lighting system for a week.

And guess what? May 23rd, 2026 – Rome – JIB Dream Fanmeet 6.5 – their first and only European fanmeet. Prepare yourselves, Europe, as blender selfies and high-voltage chemistry are incoming.

Who Are Daou & Offroad? (Besides Emotionally Devastating Icons)

For anyone who has somehow avoided the entire internet for two years, Daou Pittaya and Offroad Kantapon are the wildly popular Thai duo who went from survival show trainees to the hearts of millions.

Daou: The talented, dependable mentor figure on LAZ iCON, who basically adopted Offroad on day one and rose to #1 in the rankings like it was nothing.

Offroad: The sweet, slightly chaotic trainee who arrived with less experience but all the charm – and with Daou’s help, climbed his way to debut.

Their dynamic on LAZ iCON created actual lore (and endless TikTok edits). Fans watched them grow, struggle, train, and eventually debut together in the group LAZ1. Then came acting – and the rest was history. From Love in Translation to Century of Love, the two became one of Thailand’s most talked-about BL pairings, winning fans far beyond the BL community thanks to their warmth and undeniable off-screen bond.

“We Always Listen to You” – JIB’s Announcement

The JIB team practically wrote a love letter to the fandom with this announcement:

“You’ve been asking for them since last year… and even if we don’t go around winking at you guys about this or that couple, we always listen. It takes time, but we work behind the scenes to make your wishes happen.”

Translation: JIB saw your tweets, your edits, your all-caps demands… and they delivered. Europe, welcome to your DaouRoad era.
