OctoArts Entertainment is bringing a collection of K-POP super acts to the Philippines with The Super Stage by K-pop in Manila. The K-pop show featuring the all-female lineup of K-POP groups MAMAMOO+, KEP1ER and LAPILLUS is happening at the Mall of Asia Arena on 11 August 2023. MAMAMOO+ is the first sub-unit of the girl group MAMAMOO, composed of MAMAMOO’s leader and vocalist Solar and rapper Moonbyul. In 2022, the powerhouse duo released their debut single “Better” featuring South Korean rapper Big Naughty. In March this year, MAMAMOO+ made their comeback with their first single album “Act 1, Scene 1” with title track “GGBB”. The single album surpassed 100,000 copies sold on Circle Chart.

Buckle up and brace for “First Impact” as the nine-member multinational project girl group KEP1ER comes to Manila for the first time. Kep1er was formed through Mnet’s reality survival show Girls Planet 999, which searched for top female trainees from China, Japan and South Korea. The group made their debut on 3 January 2022 with their first mini album, First Impact. The carrier single “Wa Da Da” debuted at #84 at the Billboard Hot 100 on the week of its release.

LAPILLUS, meanwhile, is returning for their first-ever Manila concert. The six-member girl group is another multinational group composed of Chanty, a Filipino-Argentinian; Shana, Japanese; Yue, Chinese-American; and Bessie, Seowon and Haeun, Koreans. The K-pop group has good ties with the Philippines after being appointed as ambassadors of the province of Ilocos Sur. In September of last year, the group released their first mini album titled “GIRL’s ROUND Part. 1”, with five tracks dabbling in the pop and dance genres.
