Seventeen is currently one of the biggest K-pop groups that features 13 talented members with three sub-units namely: hip-hop unit (S.coups, Wonwoo, Mingyu, Vernon), vocals unit (Jeonghan, Joshua, Woozi, DK, Seungkwan) and performance unit (Jun, Hoshi, The8, Dino).
They energetically performed songs from their 4th mini album “Al1” accompanied by their other hits, such as “Mansae”, “Pretty U” and “Healing”. Their Filipino fans responded by singing their hearts out and waving their light sticks.
PH fans surprised Seventeen with a fan project by presenting them an ocean of rose quartz and serenity blue, the group’s official colors, which was emitted from their light sticks with the help of Japanese paper, giving the group themselves a night to remember as well.
During the concert MMI Live promoted, performance unit member Jun officially revealed the title of their new track, entitled “Lilili Yabbay”, for their “2017 SEVENTEEN Project”. Seventeen will also have their comeback on November 6 as part of the stated project.
