MOA in MOA is really happening as TXT debuts on the Philippine concert stage in October!

South Korean boy group TOMORROW X TOGETHER, commonly known as, TXT, is bringing their ACT : LOVE SICK World Tour to the Philippines on October 27 and 28 at the SM Mall of Asia Arena.

Big Hit Music announced upcoming Asia stops of the boy group’s world tour in a Weverse post last June 21. PULP Live World, the promoter of the Manila shows, confirmed the upcoming dates that will see Yeonjun, Soobin, Beomgyu, Taehyun, and HueningKai take over SM Mall of Asia Arena in a two-day concert.

Filipino MOAs surely did not contain their excitement as only a few minutes following the announcement, “TXT IN MANILA” already rose to the top of the Philippine Twitter trends. And they have every right to be excited because ACT : LOVE SICK in Manila will serve as the first-ever live concert of TXT in the Philippines since debuting in 2019.

Setting and Breaking Records: The TXT Way

TXT became the first boy group Big Hit Music (formerly Big Hit Entertainment) debuted six years following BTS. Debuting with high expectations, Yeonjun, Soobin, Beomgyu, Taehyun, and HueningKai defied expectations and made a name for themselves with their music and artistry.

The boy group debuted with the release of their first extended play, The Dream Chapter: Star. The EP topped South Korea’s Gaon Album Chart and Billboard World Albums Chart. Its lead single, “Crown”, took the top spot on Billboard World Digital Songs Chart. In addition, the music video for “Crown” broke the record for the most viewed K-Pop debut music video within 24 hours for a boy group.

TXT also debuted on top of Billboard Emerging Artists and at number 140 on the Billboard 200 chart. One week after their debut, the boys also secured their first music show win on SBS TV’s The Show.

Since then, TXT became unstoppable in their climb towards the top as they become one of the most successful K-Pop groups of their generation. Their most recent release, Minisode 2: Thursday’s Child was another statement of their ever-growing success. In less than two days, the extended play surpassed one million copies sold. The feat made TXT the second-fastest artist on Hanteo to do so after BTS. Moreover, Minisode 2: Thursday’s Child gave the boy group their highest ranking on Billboard 200, debuting at number four on the Top 200 Albums chart. With their recent EP, TXT also became the first foreign artist in Oricon history to top its weekly album chart with six consecutive albums.
