Super Junior memorably celebrates their sold-out 20th anniversary tour “Super Show 10” in Manila!

Hallyu Kings once again delight PH ELFs as they returned for their 20th Anniversary Tour, Super Show 10 in Manila!

A celebration of 2 decades of inspirational music, journey, and love, on October 4, PH ELFs and Super Junior reunited at SM Mall of Asia Arena. A beautiful sapphire blue ocean once again illuminated the venue, and the passionate energy of the fans filled the arena.

Super Junior kicked off the show with their powerful performance of Twins (Knock Out), as they finally entered the stage. ELFs’ loud cheers resounded, and the precious reactions of the fans were visible while they were performing. The first performance was followed by U, Black Suit, and Mamacita. I always feel the butterflies and goosebumps every time they are doing their opening.

Shindong was the first member who greet the fans. He said that it’s not only the weather that was hot but also the cheers of the fans, and shared that since the Super Show 10 started, he thinks that it’s the first time he has sweated a lot after the opening. “So, I’m asking myself what makes your love this hot?” and shouted, “Mahal ko Kayo!”

Donghae greeted the crowd and said, “Manila so hot, you guys so hot, I’m so hot.” Other members greeted the crowd with some Tagalog words, such as “Na-miss kita,” which was said by Ryeowook and Kyuhyun, and “Kamusta?” which Yesung said, who admitted that looking at the fans’ faces made him feel excited.

Siwon expressed his happiness coming back to Manila and mentioned, “It’s good to be back here. How have you been? We missed you so much.”

It’s been 6 years since Super Show 7. Heechul finally came back to the Philippine stage and greeted PH ELFs once again. They can’t hide their excitement as they saw him again. Fans shouted in chorus, “Saranghaeyo Kim Hee Chul, Uyu Bitkkal Kim Hee Chul (I love you Kim Hee Chul, Milky White Skin Kim Hee Chul)”. So happy seeing him in the flesh finally!

Eunhyuk mentioned that he saw the fan events prepared by the PH ELFs and expressed his gratitude towards everyone who participated. “Hi, hi, hi, Mabuhay!” Leeteuk cheerfully greeted all of us.

Super Junior once again showcased their jaw-dropping, powerful, and soulful performances, as they performed Walkin‘, Our Love, No Other, From U, In My Dream, Dorothy, Miracle, Me, Rokuko, Rockstar, A-Cha, Don’t Don, Marry U, and Full of Happiness. Of course, their setlist is not complete without their hit songs, Mr. Simple, Bonamana, and Sorry Sorry! Each member showed a different charm in every song and dance.

They also performed their songs from their recently released album, Super Junior25– Express Mode, Haircut, I Know, Say Less, D.N.A., and Finale. Everyone was so happy with their kings, enjoying the night, making another wonderful memory with them.

Towards the end of the show, the members delivered their heartwarming messages to the fans. Shindong thanked the fans for their fan events. “I want to say thank you so much to my ELFs who have filled this venue, see you again soon, guys.” ELFs sang a belated happy birthday song to him, and he danced. So cute as always!

“Did you all have fun? Me too, I had so much fun.” Ryeowook stated, he continued, “We, Super Junior, we don’t really have a lot of time to be back in the Philippines so often. However, we hope to have more stages so we can perform in front of you guys. Will you still continue to cheer for us, whether it be a solo or as a group?” “Thank you, and I love you,” he concluded.

Donghae said, “Did you guys have fun today? More than anything else, I just want to say, thank you so much for spending these wonderful memories to celebrate our 20th anniversary. On our 21st anniversary, I hope to see you all again. Please continue to love us more and more. I love you all.” Donghae’s birthday is coming up soon, so the fans sang a happy birthday song for him while he threw heart signs to everyone, kilig!

Yesung described what he felt about their stages. He said, “Very nice, ultra the best, I like it!” He sincerely thanked everyone for always giving them the amazing love and promised to be back soon, “See you! I will surely remember all your faces.”

“It’s always good to be back here in Manila,” Siwon said. He continued, “Every moment with ELF is the best time of our lives, too. Always remember, you are the most precious person in the world. I love you no matter what. I hope to see you soon. Thank you.”

Kyuhyun sweetly mentioned, “You are special people to me.” “Last April, I was here in the Philippines for a solo concert. And I promised all of you that I’ll be back here with my members, and today I fulfilled the promise, so I am happy. When I am on the stage, sometimes there are moments when I get tired and exhausted. However, seeing you all having so much fun and cheering for us, I never got exhausted the whole night. Thank you so much for giving us this big love, and do promise to be back very soon. Mahal ko kayo!”

“I think I’ve been here in the Philippines past 7 years. I am not sure when I will be back after tonight, however, as long as it’s with my Super Junior members and with my ELFs, I promise I will never miss the opportunity to be back,” Heechul said. “I love you Philippines, Manila,” he shouted.

“I just want to say thank you, I love you guys, sweetie, you guys are so amazing, perfect, greatest, gorgeous to me,” Eunhyuk said. He once again thanked all the fans who prepared a lot for them. He mentioned that he sees a lot of it on social media and said the fountain show was really amazing. He also mentioned that the Sorry, Sorry version of Cebu dancing inmates was also a great gift for them. “Please don’t forget that we are always by yourself as well. I love you!”

Leeteuk stated, “Now we’re building up more and more memories together, and I am very excited to look forward to what kind of memories we’re about to build further. I hope we can make more fun and great, amazing memories. Will you guys still like us even when we are ahjussis? We will still love you even when you are ahjummas and even if you become grandmothers, we will still like you because in my eyes you are just as teenagers/babies as before.” Leader-nim is the sweetest!

My first-ever K-pop concert was with Super Junior back when they held their Super Show 9 here in Manila, and to be part of this ocean celebrating their 20 years in the industry, I feel so happy and honored. Seeing them perform on the stage feels so fulfilling. Super Show 10 is not only a concert but a testament to how strong the love and connection between Super Junior and ELF.

To our dearest Hallyu Kings, always remember that we are always here to support you. Congratulations on your 20 years of being in the industry. The journey was not that easy, but you all endured it, and here you are still inspiring us with your music and dedication, and with that, we are so grateful. You all did great, and we are so proud of you. To many more years with you all! We love you, and we hope to see you again soon!

Special thanks to PULP Live World for always making this event possible for every PH ELF.
