MANILA, Philippines — South Korean singer and actor Park Ji-hoon will finally meet his Filipino fans again this August through a fan concert in Manila, after a previously scheduled event earlier this year was postponed.

Ji-hoon's agency YY Entertainment recently announced that the "Weak Hero Class" star is set to bring his "Re:flect" concert tour in Manila on August 8.

The tour is named after Ji-hoon’s single album featuring the track "Bodyelse."

Additional details about the Manila stop, including the venue and ticket prices, have yet to be announced.

Ji-hoon was initially slated to hold a brand-sponsored fan meeting in Manila last March, though the event was eventually canceled.

He last visited the Philippines in September 2023 for the Korea Travel Fiesta.

Ji-hoon started out as a child actor before breaking into the mainstream after joining the second season of the K-pop survival show “Produce 101” in 2017.

He finished second overall, landing a spot in the project boy group Wanna One, before eventually launching his solo music career following the group’s disbandment.

As an actor, he has since carved out a steady career, starring in Netflix’s coming-of-age action series “Weak Hero Class.”

Earlier this year, Ji-hoon took on a historical role in the film “The King’s Warden,” where he portrayed Prince Nosan/King Danjong and went on to win Best New Actor (Film) at the 62nd Baeksang Arts Awards held on May 8.

The film also went on to become the highest-grossing movie in South Korean box-office history.
