Manila, Philippines — Ovation Productions proudly brings South Korean superstar Kim Seonho back to Manila for his 2026 Asia Tour on May 31, 2026 (Sunday) at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.
Lovingly called “Good Boy” by Filipino fans following his breakout role in Start-Up, Kim Seonho continues to win hearts worldwide with his sincerity and undeniable charm.
In 2025’s Netflix drama When Life Gives You Tangerines, his “smile and wink” wedding scene went viral globally, launching a TikTok “Smile Challenge” aegyo challenge that generated millions of views and massive engagement — even drawing international attention. He later shared that he was both surprised and grateful for the overwhelming response.
In Netflix’s Can This Love Be Translated?, his multilingual role earned him the affectionate nickname “Papago,” highlighting his ability to transcend language barriers and connect with audiences across cultures.
Filipino fans also remember his standout performance in the action-thriller The Childe, where he played the enigmatic “The Childe”. Though portraying a Korean character, he surprised local audiences by delivering a memorable Tagalog line: “Ngumiti ka naman d’yan, ako’ng bahala sa’yo.” The moment became a fan favorite and strengthened his special bond with the Philippines.
The Asia Tour, which will begin in Seoul, celebrates Kim Seonho’s heartfelt connection with fans throughout the region. Manila promises an unforgettable evening of laughter, warmth, and the signature charm that defines the beloved “Good Boy.”
