Choi Minho, best known as a member of the legendary K-pop group SHINee, has long captivated fans with his charisma, talent, and dedication. Beyond being an idol, he has built a name for himself as an actor, athlete, and now, a solo artist. His first-ever solo concert tour, “MINHO CONCERT [MEAN: of my first],” was a milestone in his career—an opportunity to connect with fans in a new way. And last March 16, 2025, in Manila, that journey reached its final and most emotional stop.
Before the concert, Minho met with the press and expressed his excitement about ending the tour in the Philippines.
Since the finale will be here in Manila, I’ll be giving my best to give you all the best concert tonight. Thank you all for giving time to see me here.
When asked if there was a special song in the setlist, he revealed an exclusive track. “I really can’t choose a specific song, but I have this song, ‘Your Light,’ that is
unreleased. It can only be heard at my concert since it’s a song that I want to dedicate to
all the SHAWOLs.”
As the night grew, the concert began, and Minho kicked it off with “Would You Mind.” From there, he kept the energy high, performing “Chase,” “Call Back,” “Runaway” ft. Gemini, “Because of You” ft. Aespa’s Ningning, and the powerful “Something About You.” For the encore, he delighted fans with SHINee’s “View” and “Body Rhythm.”
A highlight of the night was “Your Light.” Though lively and upbeat, the song’s heartfelt message for SHAWOLs left many in tears, as Minho’s gratitude shone through every lyric. Throughout the concert, he was playful and overwhelmed by the crowd’s energy, making the night feel even more special.
“Without SHINee World, I won’t have a concert, so please save your energy!” he joked, knowing the fans would give their all until the very end.
Before stepping off the stage, Minho made one final promise:
Thank you for waiting for me. I promise to come back soon, Manila.
With that, he left behind a night filled with excitement, emotion, and unforgettable memories. He shared his gratitude to his Filipino fans online saying,
Salamat sa pagsasaya kasama ko💙. Magkita tayo sa susunod. Mahal kita🩵.
CHOI MINHO’s 2025 MINHO CONCERT <MEAN: of my first> IN MANILA is made possible by SM Entertainment, A Planet Entertainment, fangirl Asia, and L-Squared Productions Inc.
