K-Pop mania will reach new heights in Manila when four members of tripleS EVOLution stage their first-ever Southeast Asian performance on September 21!

Introduced in April 2023 as tripleS’ fourth official sub-unit, the composition of EVOLution from the full 24-member roster was selected by fans via their blockchain-based voting event, “Gravity”. The full lineup was revealed in April of this year, followed by filming for their first music video in July. Philippine fans can look forward to watching YooYeon, SooMin, NaKyoung, and YeonJi perform live.

The concert will take place at Newport World Resorts as part of Philippine Blockchain Week (PBW), alongside the first-ever NEXUS FAN FAIR, an epic celebration of gaming, technology, entertainment, music, and MORE! While their Pinoy fans will have the chance to see EVOLution perform for the first time in SEA, sister unit LOVElution is set to embark on their 10-city US tour. To complete the once-in-a-lifetime experience, limited Meet & Greet tickets will also be available! Finally, as a special bundle, tickets for NEXUS FAN FAIR will be free of charge with every EVOLution concert ticket.

tripleS is managed by Modhaus, an open architecture entertainment ecosystem that regularly partners with major Web3 industry players to promote blockchain mass adoption via the global popularity of K-Pop. Since launching, the main tripleS group has become a breakout hit across the social media and gamefi spaces, represented in NFTs, including avatars, wearables and various digital collectibles.

AAA 2023: PHILIPPINES TAKES CENTER STAGE

by Philippine KPOP Convention August 31, 2023

written by Philippine KPOP Convention

In a monumental move that underscores the Philippines’ increasing prominence in the international
entertainment industry, the esteemed ASIA ARTIST AWARDS (AAA) is set to dazzle audiences in the
heart of Bulacan.
This year, the Philippines proudly takes center stage as it hosts the prestigious AAA on December 14,
2023, at the iconic Philippine Arena, one of the world’s largest indoor venues.

The ASIA ARTIST AWARDS, a distinguished South Korean award-giving institution, stands as a beacon
of excellence in the Asian entertainment sphere. Since its inception in 2016—a development
spearheaded by the South Korean business newspaper Money Today, along with global media giants
MTN and StarNews, the AAA has consistently celebrated the best the region has to offer in terms of film,
music, television, and digital content.
Over the years, the AAA has recognized the talents of K-pop legends BTS and EXO, as well as trot singer
Lim Young-woong, and actors Lee Jung-jae and Lee Seung-gi. Hallyu personalities Park Bo-gum and Im
Yoon-ah were among the first recipients of the prestigious Asia Star Award. Since then, the AAA has also
feted new blood, such as aespa and IVE. With its rich history of honoring established icons and
spotlighting emerging talents, the AAA offers a panoramic view of Asia’s dynamic showbiz scene.

The sixth edition of the awards ceremony was a grand affair held on December 2, 2021, at the KBS Arena
in Seoul, with the charismatic duo of Leeteuk and Jang Won-young taking on hosting duties. Their
undeniable chemistry was on display once again when they returned for the seventh edition on December
13, 2022, at the Nippon Gaishi Hall in Nagoya, Japan. As of this writing, it remains to be seen if they will
return for a third time or not.
Beyond the radiant spotlight and red-carpet moments, the AAA serves a deeper purpose. It acts as a
venue for fostering collaboration and cultural dialogue among artists from different Asian nations. By
facilitating these interactions, the AAA plays a vital role in shaping the future of entertainment in the
region. It also promotes cross-cultural understanding, and champions the global proliferation of Asian pop
culture.
In a significant development leading up to this year’s ceremony at the Philippine Arena, PULP Live World
President and CEO Mr. Vernon Go, along with PULP Live World’s Vice President and COO, Ms. Happee
Sy-Go, met with the AAA’s top brass at Shangri-La The Fort in Taguig City, Metro Manila. This landmark
deal was finally made official last August 14, 2023, in the presence of StarNews CEO Mr. Bahg Junechul,
TONZ Entertainment’s CEO Mr. Kuk Byoungjin, and its General Manager Ms. Kim Serin. The contract
signing set the stage for the 2023 ASIA ARTIST AWARDS.
The Philippines, with its rich tapestry of cultural traditions and fast-growing entertainment sector, is the
perfect backdrop for this year’s AAA. Of late, Filipino artists have consistently enchanted audiences
worldwide, making it an epicenter of talent that resonates globally.
The 2023 ASIA ARTIST AWARDS is more than an awards ceremony. It symbolizes the potential of art to
bridge gaps in society, transcend borders, and unite people under the banner of creativity. As December
14 approaches, the anticipation is palpable. The Philippines is gearing up to roll out the red carpet for
South Korea’s brightest stars, ensuring an unforgettable evening of celebration and camaraderie.
The 2023 ASIA ARTIST AWARDS marks the first time the Philippines will host such an event. It was
made possible through the efforts of StarNews, TONZ Entertainment, and the Philippines’ one and only
trailblazer in live Hallyu events, PULP Live World.
