From Jakarta to Manila: KOSTCON Goes Global
KOSTCON’s 2025 world tour kicked off in Jakarta on August 2, before making its highly anticipated stop in Manila. The Philippine leg is made possible by Random Minds, one of the country’s leading concert producers, in collaboration with Hi-Five Entertainment Sdn. Bhd. and Kelebrity Worldwide Inc.
Why Manila Was the Top Pick
In an exclusive interview, David Shin, CEO of Kelebrity Worldwide Inc. and the mastermind behind KOSTCON, explained why the Philippines was a clear choice for the concert tour.
“Filipinos are incredibly passionate about Korean culture, especially K-dramas,” Shin shared. “We’ve seen their unwavering love and support for Korean content, so we knew the Philippines had to be one of our first stops.”
Unlike typical K-pop events, KOSTCON is uniquely structured to feel like a K-drama unfolding live—with music as the soul of the story. The performances are not just songs, but emotional narratives that transport the audience through the highs and lows of their favorite dramas.
One artist especially creating buzz is Chen of EXO. Shin noted:
“Chen serves as a bridge between K-pop and K-OST. While he’s a celebrated idol, his OST performances stand out for their emotional depth. He’s a perfect addition to KOSTCON.”
