K-pop singer Baekhyun is coming back to the Philippines for a much-awaited fan meet in collaboration with a popular Filipino fashion brand. Fans will be seeing the soloist at the Mall of Asia Arena on February 2, 2025.

โ€œBrace yourself for a night of songs, smiles, and surprises youโ€™ll never forget,โ€ the local lifestyle brand captioned their post.

This fan meeting marks the 32-year-old artistโ€™s highly anticipated comeback in the country, which is less than a year since he held his first-ever solo tour โ€œLonsdaleiteโ€ concert in April 2024 at the SMART Araneta Coliseum.

However, this would be the first time that the Korean artist will be back in the country following the success of his fourth extended play Hello, World, which was released in September 2024. The K-pop soloist is best known for his tracks such as UN Village, Candy, Bambi, and PARANOIA.

Meanwhile, the popular EXO rapper Chanyeol will be meeting fans once again with the first-ever Waterbomb Festival, which will take place on February 22 and 23, 2025 at the Quirino Grandstand in Rizal Park, Manila.

Waterbomb Festival is an annual summer music festival launched in Seoul in 2015. It is widely known for its stellar lineup of K-pop idols and Korean R&B and hip-hop artists, as well as fun water-based activities like water cannons and water gun battles.

Chanyeol will be performing on February 22 as part of the Yellow Team. As of writing, he will join Hwasa, B.I, Lee Chae Yeon, and Dynamic Duo in the same team.

Previously, the 32-year-old rapper visited the country in November 2024, where he performed his โ€œ2024 Chanyeol Live Tour : ้ƒฝๅธ‚้ขจๆ™ฏ (City-scape)โ€ to a lively and packed crowd.

The EXO rapper is best known for his hit songs like Stay With Me, Yours, Good Enough, and Black Out.

Fortunately for Filipino EXO-Ls, the fun is not yet over! Fans can tune in to Be the Next: 9 Dreamers, a highly awaited talent survival show in collaboration between MLD Entertainment PH and TV5.

The talent survival show features EXOโ€™s Chen as one of the leading celebrity mentors, alongside MOMOLAND Hye-bin, AB6IX Woo-jin Park, Ye-dam Bang, and HORI7ON Vinci, while Sandara Park will be the showโ€™s emcee. The global talent show will air on February 8, 2025.

Finally, fans can look forward to EXOโ€™s D.O.โ€™s upcoming film, Secret: Untold Melody, which is hitting Philippine cinemas on February 26, 2025. The romance movie, which also stars Won Jin-ah and Shin Ye-eun, ย is a South Korean adaptation of the 2007 Taiwanese film Secret.

D.O.โ€™s last film, The Moon, was also released in local cinemas in 2023.

The wait is truly worthwhile for Filipino EXO-Ls, as they are treated to numerous opportunities to meet each member of the group through concerts, fan meetings, and solo releases. This year also marks the end of EXOโ€™s military enlistment era, with Kai and Sehun set to complete their mandatory military service in February and September 2025, respectively.
