MANILA, Philippines – Fans of Sandara Park and Nam Joo-Hyuk had their hallyu thirst satisfied as the two South Korean superstars visited Manila for the one-night only Penshoppe FanCon at Mall of Asia Arena on Sunday, July 29.
Sandara, who rose to fame in Korea as a member of the now-disbanded girl group 2NE1, and Joo-Hyuk, best known for his roles in Korean dramas Weighlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo and The Bride of Habaek, met with their fans wearing Penshoppe's pre-holiday collection.
Prior to finding fame in Korea, Sandara (now more popularly known as "Dara") was a local celebrity after joining and almost winning the reality-based talent competition Star Circle Quest.
Lucky fans were also able to interact with Dara and Joo-Hyuk onstage, and even luckier fans got to join the two as they re-enacted iconic scenes from their music videos and Korean dramas.
The show also featured special performances from DJ Tom Taus, Keiko Necesario, and IV of Spades. Penshoppe's local brand ambassadors — Khalil Ramos, Maris Racal, Ronnie Alonte, and Loisa Andalio — also performed at the event.
