wave to earth Plays Manila: Never a Bad Day with the K-Indie Rockers

How could my day be bad when I'm with you? 

Korean sensation wave to earth proved once again that their music is a happy hill — especially for their Filipino Planktons — during the Manila stop of their “play with earth! 0.03” tour on February 28, 2025, at the SM Mall of Asia Arena.

Presented by KARPOS, the indie-rock act radiated good vibes as they delivered their well-loved hits, including “seasons,” “peach eyes,” “bad.” and more. To the fans’ surprise, they also played an extended instrumental introduction to one of their fan-favorite tracks, “love.”

Apart from performing cuts from their latest album, “play with earth! 0.03 (extended),” the Korean band made their set unforgettable by including a confetti shower during their performance of “annie.”

Throughout the night, the whole arena was beaming with emotions as the band slowly dove into their performances — serving soothing vocals and electrifying instrumentals one song after another.

The Seoul-based act took to their Instagram account to express their elation after receiving overwhelming support from their Filipino fans: “Manila, the energy was unreal! Maraming salamat.”

wave to earth’s singer-songwriter Daniel Kim, drummer Dong Kyu Shin, bassist John Cha, and their touring members pulled off a night to remember, closing out February on a high note.
