The magic of Korean drama is set to return to the concert stage as the Cultural Center of the Philippines, the Korean Cultural Center in the Philippines, and the National Commission for Culture and the Arts present OST Symphony II: K-Drama in Concert, on 25 October at the Samsung Hall, SM Aura in Taguig City, with two shows at 2 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.
OST Symphony II: K-Drama in Concert is in partnership with the Korea Tourism Organization Manila Office (KTO), the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency, SM Supermalls, VIU Philippines and GMA.
Following the overwhelming success of its debut last year, OST Symphony II: K-Drama in Concert will once again bring drama, nostalgia, and well-loved soundtracks to life — this time, with even grander performances from the Philippine Philharmonic Orchestra (PPO).
At the heart of this concert is the PPO led by Maestro Herminigildo Ranera. Fresh from their successful United Kingdom tour, PPO will perform powerful and heart-stirring renditions of beloved Korean drama or K-drama soundtracks. From the adrenaline-filled beats of Maggie Kang’s K-pop Demon Hunters to the tender melodies of Crash Landing on You and the tear-jerking When Life Gives You Tangerines, the night promises a journey through the emotions that made every K-drama unforgettable.
OST Symphony II: K-Drama in Concert also features a lineup of guest performers, including Korean singer-songwriter Hong Isaac and rising artist YEGNY, alongside Filipino artists Kyline Alcantara and Angel Guardian. These stars will add flair to the concert, bridging cultures through songs that celebrate both Korean and Filipino artistry.
Before the concert, KCC will also hold a K-OST and K-show production workshop in partnership with GMA, gathering some of Korea’s leading music and show producers for a one-day creative exchange with Filipino professionals. The initiative aims to bring both industries closer and spark new opportunities for collaboration in storytelling and production.
This year’s concert also shines a spotlight on Gyeongju, the host city of the upcoming 2025 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Economic Leaders’ Meeting in Korea. Known for its rich cultural heritage, Gyeongju is bringing a piece of its charm to Manila through a promotional booth at the concert lobby, where guests can learn more about the city’s history and attractions. The space is complemented by a K-drama merchandise display, offering fans an added layer of appreciation and a closer look at the cultural stories that inspire their favorite shows.
With a full house of K-drama fans, music lovers, and cultural enthusiasts, OST Symphony II: K-Drama in Concert will once again showcase that great stories know no borders — and that the universal language of music continues to unite hearts, one heartfelt soundtrack at a time.
OST Symphony II: K-Drama in Concert is free and open to the public. Tickets are now available through smtickets.com.
