OVERPASS: K-Pop Music Concert


Filipino K-pop multistans had a time of their lives as OVERPASS: K-Pop Music Concert brought together EXO-Ls, Sommungchis, and I.Ds for the ultimate fan gathering celebrating the excellence of K-Pop music in R&B, Pop, Soul, and Hip-Hop genres.

Rapper, singer, songwriter, producer, director, composer, plus the CEO of record label IOK Entertainment, the Korean hip-hop act B.I showed the Filipino fans why he is considered as one of the industry's best as he fascinated Pinoys with his unmatched energy while performing his hit songs.

This marks the artist's third solo visit in the Philippines.

Next to perform was It girl Jeon Somi. The idol who has flawless visuals like a porcelain doll had everyone screaming at the top of their lungs as she performed her viral hits like "DUMB DUMB," "XOXO," and "Birthday." Filo Sommungchis' wish to hear her live finally came true.

The soloist rose to fame after finishing 1st by popular fan vote at the survival reality show Produce 101, and later achieved commercial success as the center vocalist of the group I.O.I. In 2018, she signed with THEBLACKLABEL to pursue a solo career.

Finally, Araneta Coliseum once again witnessed an incredible silver ocean as the eribongs lit up to signal the start of EXO's Baekhyun set, the headliner of the show. Coming from his much-awaited return, he is definitely back on the scene once again.

EXO-Ls went wild as the main vocalist of K-pop superstar EXO performed his hits such as "UN Village," "Betcha," "Candy," "Love Again," and "Bambi."

His band is known for its powerhouse vocal line and Baekhyun impressed the crowd with his impeccable live singing skills, as what is expected from the record-breaking soloist that is dubbed by the Koreans as the “Genius Idol”.

What made the night more memorable for PHIXOs (Filipino EXO-Ls) is his promise that he will soon be back together with the rest of his group.

Baekhyun is the first artist since 2001 to achieve a million sales for his EP Delight and he then went on to receive his second million-seller with Bambi. Baekhyun also achieved the most “Best Male Artist” trophies after winning three years in a row at Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA) history, a prestigious music awards show in South Korea.

Meanwhile, EXO will release its seventh full-length album on July 10 and the group will be dropping a pre-release track entitled ''Let Me In” tonight, 5:00 p.m. Philippine time. The song was first performed during their fanmeeting dubbed as EXO'CLOCK held in Seoul, Korea last April 8 and 9.
