SEVENTEEN is proving that not even a temporary lineup change can dim their superstar shine.
The K-pop supergroup just wrapped the Asia leg of their “New_” tour with a massive, high-energy show at the Philippine Sports Stadium — and fans were reminded exactly why they’re one of the biggest acts in the world right now.
Performing as nine members while some of their bandmates fulfill military duties, the group admitted they had concerns going in. Seungkwan got candid with the crowd, revealing they weren’t sure if they could fully deliver under the circumstances.
“We were worried… ‘Would we be able to fill the void?’” he shared during the show. But those fears didn’t last long. “Our worries disappeared thanks to you guys,” he added, giving major love to their fans.
And honestly? There was nothing “lacking” about this concert.
Each member had their moment to shine with standout solo stages that had the crowd screaming. Dino kicked things off with the sleek, dance-heavy “Trigger,” while Jun slowed it down with the smooth vocals of “Gemini.” Vernon surprised everyone by picking up a guitar for “Shining Star,” and Joshua kept things soft and sentimental with “Fortunate Change.”
DK brought pure sunshine energy with “Happy Virus,” while Seungkwan showed off his powerhouse vocals on the emotional piano ballad “Raindrops.” The8 oozed charisma during “Skyfall,” and Mingyu turned up the heat — literally — rocking an all-black look and shades for a commanding performance of “Shake It Off.” Leader S.Coups then took things to another level with his fierce stage for “Jungle.”
As if that wasn’t enough, the group powered through a hit-filled finale that had zero chill. “Hot,” “Highlight,” “Rock,” and “Hit” kept the energy sky-high, while fireworks lit up the night during “Rock With You” — and again during the encore with “Eyes on You.”

Cue all the feels.
The members took a moment to soak it all in and thank their fans, with Joshua sharing, “I’m glad we get to spend the last stop with you guys,” and Vernon adding how happy he was that the final show happened in the Philippines.
DK didn’t hold back either, declaring, “Philippine Carats are the best.”
And S.Coups made sure to leave fans with a promise that hit straight in the heart: no matter what, SEVENTEEN is forever.
“We’ll make sure to meet you guys,” he said. “Remember that the 13 members will never, ever be separated.”
BRB, getting emotional.
