During the short interview part of the show, Red Velvet leader Irene told host Ryan Bang in Korean that they really wanted to hold a concert in the Philippines.
Red Velvet first came to the country in 2015 for the Best of the Best event, but they are yet to hold a solo concert.
Ryan asked what Irene wants to do if she comes back to Manila for a vacation, but the arena was filled with chants “Solo con! Solo con! Solo con!”
Irene and Ryan at first had a hard time deciphering what the chants meant, but when Ryan said: “Ah! Solo con!”
Irene did a little happy dance.
“Pupunta ba kayo 'pag solo concert?” Ryan asked the arena and the legion of Reveluvs erupted in cheers.
Irene showed her pinky, as if making a pinky swear that they would return for a solo concert.
Other artists featured at the KWMF are Sohee, Kim Donghan, ELRIS and NCT 127.
Ryan also said that there would be another K-pop World Music Festival, but details of the event and artists included in the lineup are yet to be revealed. — Video by EC Toledo IV
