Pinoy K-Pop lovers rejoice! Korean Wave or Hallyu is definitely sweeping across the country like storm.

And the K-Pop fever in Manila is expected to reach a feverish 38°C as Korea’s hottest idol Kim Hyun Joong is coming to Manila together with Korean boy group BEAST for a concert titled “K-Pop Meets P-Pop: Kim Hyun Joong and Beast Live in Manila” at the Araneta Coliseum on June 19, 7pm.

Kim Hyun Joong is famous in the Philippines for his role as Yoon Ji Hoo, the calm and charismatic gentleman of F4, in the hit Korean drama series “Boys Over Flowers.” BEAST is one of the most prominent Korean boy groups that captured the hearts of fans with their oozing talents and chart-topping hits.

Kim Hyun Joong is also active in his singing career as the leader of SS501 which debuted in Korea in 2005. Their songs such as “Snow Prince,” “Fighter,” “Déjà Vu,” “A Song Calling For You” and “Love Like This” received so much love and support from their fans both in Korea and abroad.

In fact, despite language barriers, Filipinos love to sing their songs “Because I’m Stupid” and “Making A Lover” which are included in the “Boys Over Flowers” OST. Their song “Love Like This” is steadily climbing its way to the top of the MYX Chart. It is currently placed on Number 8 on the MYX Hit Chart (May 23 – 29) and Number 7 on the MYX International Top 20 (May 22 – 28).

BEAST is composed of Doo Joon, Hyun Seung, Jun Hyung, Yo Seob, Gi Kwang and Dong Woon. The members’ musical and dancing prowess proved to be the group’s greatest strength – Doo Joon (leader, vocalist and rapper), Hyun Seung (vocalist, lead dancer), Jun Hyung (main rapper, vocalist), Yo Seob (main vocalist), Gi Kwang (lead vocalist, main dancer) and Dong Woon (vocalist).

BEAST means Boys of the East Standing Tall. Their albums include “Beast Is The B2ST” and “Shock Of The New Era.” Their popular songs are “Bad Girl,” “Mystery,” “Shock” and “Special.”

Although they only debuted last year, BEAST has already earned awards like the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism: Rookie Music Award, Cyworld Digital Music Awards: Rookie of the Month (“Mystery”) and 19th Seoul Music Awards: Best Newcomer Award.

The songs from their second mini-album “Shock Of The New Era” were strong contenders in the Korean music chart. “Shock” was Number 1 on Cyworld’s Music Realtime chart. Their other songs were also on various music charts like “Take Care of My Girlfriend” (Say No) was Number 10, “Just Before Shock” was Number 13, “Easy” was Number 14 and “Special” was Number 19.

“K-Pop Meets P-Pop: Kim Hyun Joong and Beast Live in Manila” is produced by Underwood Plan and Viva Concerts and Events. The concert is for the benefit of Abiertas House of Friendship – for the benefit of young mothers.
