MANILA, Philippines — The recently concluded Ppopcon 2023 was oozing with surprises, treats and talent as some of the biggest and up-and-coming Pinoy pop (P-pop) acts took the stage at the Araneta Coliseum until the wee hours of the morning last Monday.
It was an event that showed the camaraderie among P-pop groups as members of each were paired with another member of the group for spot hosting. It was a refreshing sight to see SB19's Josh hosting with BINI's Jhoanna, for instance.
It was also a night full of surprises for fans awaiting good news from their favorite P-pop acts.

Josh sizzled in a silver outfit, with his toned abs on display as he sang some of his hits including "Wild Tonight."
Ken performed as Felip and sang some of his songs, including dancing for the first time to his "Mictest" single.
MNL48's Sheki serenaded her fans with her single "Tell Me."
