SEVENTEEN kicked off the Asia leg of their highly anticipated ‘SEVENTEEN [RIGHT HERE] WORLD TOUR’ with an unforgettable two-day concert at the Philippine Sports Stadium in Bulacan on January 18 and 19.
Since the tour’s launch in October 2024 with two sold-out shows in Korea, ‘RIGHT HERE’ has taken the world by storm, with SEVENTEEN performing in five U.S. cities and four cities in Japan. The tour has garnered a massive following, attracting over 700,000 fans both in-person and online, solidifying SEVENTEEN’s status as a global K-pop powerhouse.
The Bulacan shows were nothing short of spectacular, with SEVENTEEN delivering a three-hour set that included some of their biggest hits as well as fan-favorite deep cuts. The concert kicked off with a powerful opening sequence, showcasing the group’s evolution into “maestro” artists with high-energy tracks such as “Fear,” “Fearless,” and “MAESTRO.”
A highlight of the show came during the opening, when BSS (a sub-unit of SEVENTEEN) surprised fans with a live debut of their new track “CBZ (Prime Time).” The trio performed the chorus for the first time, thrilling the audience and adding an unexpected twist to the concert.
The show continued with standout performances by SEVENTEEN’s three units—hip-hop, performance, and vocal—each bringing their unique flair to the stage. Tracks like “Water,” “Rain,” and “Candy” allowed the members to shine individually while highlighting the cohesive power of the group. The crowd was on their feet, energized by the variety of the performance.
The concert reached its peak with powerful renditions of fan-favorites “Super” and “Adore U,” followed by an epic encore featuring their iconic “VERY NICE.” The members ran from one side of the stage to the other, engaging directly with fans and ensuring everyone left with unforgettable memories. The ‘never-ending’ performance of “VERY NICE,” where the group interacts with the audience in a highly energetic and playful manner, is a hallmark of SEVENTEEN’s live shows, and the Philippine concert was no exception.
The group took a moment to reflect on the concert and express their gratitude to the passionate Filipino fans. WOOZI shared, “We’ve always had such good memories in the Philippines. We’re always touched by your big, passionate energy. Thank you so much.”
S.COUPS also took a moment to express his heartfelt appreciation, saying, “First of all, I’m thankful to be here with everyone. I’m so happy to be an artist who can fill a venue like this as we approach our 10th year. Although we are not 13 right now, I hope we can come back here as 13 again. We’ll try to come see you often whenever we get the chance, so please continue to show us love and support. I love you.”
To heighten the excitement for their Philippines concert, SEVENTEEN collaborated with Spotify to open a pop-up CARAT Station Manila. The pop-up featured stunning photo opportunities and interactive activities for fans, running from January 17 to 19.
Looking ahead, SEVENTEEN has planned an exciting collaboration for their upcoming Singapore stops. From January 20 to 26, Marina Bay Sands will be lit up in the group’s official colors—Rose Quartz and Serenity—during concert nights, with special SEVENTEEN-inspired culinary creations and exclusive collectibles available at various restaurants and bars across the resort. The event, titled “THE WONDERLAND with SEVENTEEN,” is expected to be a memorable experience for fans in Singapore.
After Singapore, SEVENTEEN will continue the tour in Jakarta on February 8 and 9 before wrapping up the Asia leg in Bangkok on February 15 and 16. The ‘RIGHT HERE’ World Tour, which has already been a massive success, will then continue with additional dates in other regions, ensuring SEVENTEEN’s global fanbase can continue to enjoy their electrifying performances.
