South Korean producer, DJ, and hitmaker EL CAPITXN is heading to the Philippines this week for his first-ever solo concerts in Manila and Bacolod, presented by CDM Entertainment. Known for shaping some of K-pop’s most memorable sounds, EL CAPITXN is stepping into the spotlight with a show that promises depth, emotion, and a powerful look into his musical world.
EL CAPITXN has long been recognized as one of the key creative forces behind major K-pop releases. He co-wrote and co-produced tracks such as “Daechwita” from SUGA’s D-2, “eight” by IU, and “Rendezvous” by AHOF—earning a reputation as an artist who blends personal storytelling with genre-bending sound.
For his Philippine tour, titled “WHO KILLED EL?” fans can expect a setlist that brings his artistry forward in a new way. The Manila stop will take place on December 12 at Sky Dome, followed by a Bacolod show on December 14.
Ahead of the concerts, EL CAPITXN teased fans with a rehearsal clip hinting at something meaningful he plans to revisit onstage—especially one moment tied closely to his long-standing friendship and collaboration history with SUGA of BTS. EL CAPITXN has previously shared how significant and emotional that performance was for him. Fans can expect that same heart to resonate again on this new stage.
ARMYs and longtime listeners will find plenty to look forward to as EL CAPITXN steps out from behind the scenes to deliver a show anchored in connection, memory, and the sound he helped shape over the years.
