Chanyeol is set to hold his first solo concert “City-scape” in Manila this weekend, and it’s definitely one of the concerts fans wouldn’t want to miss!
Known for his magnetic stage presence and versatility as a rapper, vocalist, and actor, the K-pop star will take us through a decade of high-energy performances, electrifying live instrumentals, and captivating visuals that will showcase his artistry and undying passion for music!
Here are reasons why we all look forward to Chanyeol’s upcoming concert in Manila:
1. This is Chanyeol’s first solo concert
Chanyeol is no stranger to the Philippines. As EXO tingi prevails in the country, the K-pop idol has met fans in various ways: as one-half of EXO-SC or in solo fan meetings where he shows cute and cool versions of himself. Luckily, his frequent visits make fans feel that this country is almost his second home.

However, this upcoming concert holds a special meaning for him and his fans since this will be the first time he will be touring as a soloist!
2. He will be performing songs from his first mini album—and MORE!
Last August, Chanyeol finally released his much-awaited solo debut album, Black Out, which highlighted the K-pop star’s vocal prowess as a soloist.

In addition to his mini album, we might hear more of his solo and collaboration songs during the concert. Any guesses on which songs outside of his mini album he might perform?
3. He will be showing a different side of him
You’ve probably seen his cool side alongside Sehun in EXO-SC and his playful, charming side with his EXO bandmates, but this time, we will be seeing a different version of him as he holds his first-ever solo concert after twelve years as a K-pop idol.

4. He might sing Hawak Kamay again—or something else?
The Black Out singer has previously sung Yeng Constantino’s Hawak Kamay for the fans, and as much as we loved hearing him sing in Filipino, we can’t help but hope for more.
