Kim Seonho is heading back to Manila, and it’s set to be another heartfelt night with Filipino fans. Presented by Ovation Productions, the South Korean actor will hold his 2026 Asia Tour fanmeeting, “Love Factory” on May 31, 2026 (Sunday) at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
Affectionately dubbed the “Good Boy” by fans after his breakout role in Start-Up, Kim Seonho has continued to build a strong global following, thanks to his sincerity, warmth, and natural charm on and off screen.
In Netflix’s 2025 drama When Life Gives You Tangerines, one particular moment stood out: his “smile and wink” wedding scene, which quickly went viral across platforms. The clip sparked a TikTok “Smile Challenge” aegyo trend that racked up millions of views and widespread engagement worldwide. The actor later shared how surprised—and thankful—he was for the overwhelming response.
He also showcased his range in Can This Love Be Translated?, taking on a multilingual role that earned him the nickname “Papago.” The project further highlighted his ability to connect with audiences across different languages and cultures.
Closer to home, Filipino fans still talk about his role in the action-thriller The Childe, where he played the mysterious “The Childe.” One standout moment came when he delivered a Tagalog line—“Ngumiti ka naman d’yan, ako’ng bahala sa’yo”—which quickly became a crowd favorite and strengthened his bond with local fans.
The Asia Tour will kick off in Seoul, celebrating Kim Seonho’s connection with fans across the region. His Manila stop is expected to bring the same mix of laughter, warmth, and charm that fans have come to love from the actor.
Blast TV joins the tour as its official media partner in the Philippines. The platform offers a wide range of entertainment content, including blockbuster films, TV series, live TV, anime, K-dramas, and live sports.
Ticketing details are expected to be announced soon. For updates, fans can check Ovation Productions’ official social media pages and website at ovation.ph.
