MANILA, Philippines — The rising K-pop group XLOV took over the Philippines with a two-day mall tour that brought their bold performances, genderless charm, and fearless artistry straight to Filipino fans. Held at Robinsons Las Piñas and Market! Market!, the group’s Manila visit was more than just a series of shows — it was a statement of individuality, inclusivity, and the power of music that transcends labels.
A Concept Beyond Boundaries
Debuting under 257 Entertainment earlier this year, XLOV — composed of Wumuti, Rui, Hyun, and Haru — has quickly become one of the most talked-about rookie acts in K-pop. Their name, a combination of “X” (the unknown) and “LOV” (love yet to be completed), reflects their desire to explore and express love in all its forms — undefined, unbound, and unapologetically real.
Since debuting with I’mma Be in January 2025, XLOV has challenged conventions through a “genderless” artistic direction — one that celebrates individuality over stereotypes. Their sharp performances, fluid fashion, and confidence have set them apart in a landscape where visual and musical identities are often boxed in.
A Warm Manila Welcome
Filipino fans — affectionately known as EVOL — showed up in full force during XLOV’s first-ever Philippine tour. The group’s mall shows on October 1 at Robinsons Las Piñas and October 2 at Market! Market! were packed with energy, with fans cheering, waving banners, and singing along to hits like 1&Only from their latest single album I ONE.
From electrifying stages to heartfelt moments of interaction, XLOV’s Manila stop captured everything fans love about live K-pop events: spontaneity, connection, and emotion. The members expressed their gratitude for the warm welcome, with many fans sharing online how genuine and present the group was throughout their performances and fan interactions.
A Promising Start to Global Expansion
For a group less than a year into their debut, XLOV’s quick jump into international promotions shows impressive ambition. Their Manila visit not only builds a foundation for a Southeast Asian fanbase but also signals how deeply their message resonates across cultures.
By championing a concept that breaks gender norms and celebrates creative freedom, XLOV’s music and message are connecting with a new generation of fans who crave authenticity and representation. Their performances in Manila proved that their artistry is more than just visual — it’s emotional, intentional, and deeply human.
What’s Next for XLOV
Fresh from their Philippine promotions, XLOV is already gearing up for their next comeback, as teased on their official channels. The announcement has sparked excitement among fans eager to see what new sound and concept the group will unveil next.
With I ONE showing strong growth and musical identity, expectations are high for what’s to come. Whether through boundary-breaking performances or their evolving artistry, XLOV continues to prove that their message of authenticity and love speaks a universal language.
Their Manila visit is only the beginning — and as their story unfolds, EVOLs can look forward to a new chapter filled with music, passion, and purpose.
XLOV’s journey has only just begun — and if their Manila visit is any indication, the world is ready to love boldly, without boundaries.
