CHEN (EXO)
Chen’s mesmerizing vocals shine during his set, and we think we are “Fall in Love Again” with him as he opened his performance with his solo single. It was followed by “Best Luck” from the remarkable 2014 drama “It’s Okay, That’s Love.” And “Make it Count” from the Korean drama “Touch Your Heart.” The loudest scream came when he performed “Everytime,” the hit OST of the smash drama that made us fall in love with the Alpha Team of special forces from “Descendants of the Sun.” It gave the audience a total relapse of this well-loved TV series. He ended his set by leaving the audience dancing in memories of his solo hit single “Broken Party.”

K.Will
Korea’s top-notch balladeer known as “Prince of OST” graced the Philippine concert stage for the first time. He opened his set with “Love Blossom” from his 2013 album! Followed by the “All I Have is My Heart” OST from the 2022 comedy medical drama “Ghost Doctor” and the “Beautiful Moment” OST for the 2018 Korean drama “The Beauty Inside.” “Talk Love” from “Descendants of the Sun” was also included. It was like Snoopy, Harry Potter, and Piccolo from Alpha Team talking and taking us back to 2016, a major relapse for the audience for sure! He wrapped his set with “Please don’t…” a song that made him one of the most well-received male soloists in Korea.

Kim Bum-Soo
Known for his powerful vocals and emotional ballads, Kim Bum-soo is one of the highly acclaimed South Korean singers who finally grace the Philippine concert stage. He opened his set with “A Love Begins from Confession,” the OST for the Korean drama “The Producers.” He also performed his new song “Journey” as a celebration and reflection of his 25-year musical journey. He performed and took us back to 2010 with “Appear” from the top-notch “Secret Garden,” which made the whole arena feel that Kim Joo-won [Hyun Bin’s character] was asking us to dance! One of his set highlights was when he performed “I Miss You,” a go-to karaoke song in Korea known for its emotional impact and its association with the iconic drama that made us fall in love with Cholo and Jodi, “Stairway to Heaven.” Wrapping up his set, Kim Bum-soo performed one of his well-known commercially successful songs, the song that is often associated with a rainy, cozy, introspective mood and thoughts of loved ones. “Last Love” played, and the set has ended, but definitely not his last love for the Manila audience!

LYn (린)
Make waves for thy queen! LYn is highly celebrated for her powerful vocals and emotional delivery and dubbed as “Queen of OST” in Korea. She opened her set with “We Were in Love,” which is the OST for the 2018 KBS drama “Are You Human?” Followed by another relapse song for our DOTS heart, she performed “With You” and teased the crowd for song requests and sang “LOVE” and “Teddy Bear” a cappella before she transitioned to performing another iconic hit, “Love Story,” from “The Legend of the Blue Sea” to “My Destiny,” and took us back to 2013 with the hit fantasy romantic comedy “My Love from the Star,” in which, by the way, she looked like Cheon Song-yi with her whole ensemble. Lyn wrapped up his set, making our inner Heo Yeon Woo happy when she performed “Back in Time” from the hit series “The Moon that Embraces the Sun.”
