Prayer reveal: Enhypen fan gets upgraded to VIP seat during K-pop group’s concert in Manila

-

An Engene fan from Antipolo camped out at a mall for ten hours to buy a ticket for the first–ever concert of Enhyphen in Manila. Unfortunately, she was not able to secure one.

Teenager Elysia Caballero said that when she was about to lose hope, a friend of her suddenly offered to sell a Gen Ad ticket for the day two concert of the K-pop boy group.

“Basta po maka-attend ako sa first concert nila dito sa Manila wala na po akong pake kung anong seat po ‘yung mapunta sakin. Sobrang desperate na rin po ako makapunta and makita po sila in person even though malayo, basta marinig lang po sila na live na nagpeperform. Ang sarap po kasi sa feeling ng ganon,” Elysia shared with The Philippine STAR during an interview.

Elysia, a fan of Enhypen for two years, was very happy when she got the ticket.

“Nakilala ko po sila nung August 2020. Nagsco-scroll lang po ako sa TikTok. First-ever boy group ko po silang ini-stan and sila po ‘yung first-ever K-pop na nakapagpabili po sakin ng lahat ng merch po nila as in sobra pong napagastos ako,” she shared.

“Since pandemic po that time, they really helped me po. I got motivated po, sa school. I feel safe po talaga kapag pinapanood ko ‘yung mga contents nila. Lagi ko akong nag lolook forward sa mga new contents. Seeing their smile gives me comfort,” she added.

On the day of the concert, Elysia and her friends were excited to see the group perform live after watching and following them on social media.

“Nung nakita ko po ‘yung view nung Gen Ad, ok naman po talaga. Bigla na pong nagsalita ‘yung staff samin na lumipat po kami sa VIP seated, nagulat po kami ng friend kong dalawa. Hindi po samin nagsisink in ‘yung word na VIP seated,” Elysia recalled the surreal moment.

In the posted video on social media, Elysia was able to capture the conversation they had with the concert employee.

“F15 and 16. Ma’am lipat po kayo sa VIP dun po sa lower box po sa second floor po,” the employee can be heard saying in the video.

“Hala, bakit po? Seryoso? Seryoso po ate?” she replied.

“‘Yung seat niyo po kasi ma’am ayun, nakaharang po and una na ho kasi pagbenta ng ticket,” the employe replied.

“Ate iiyak na ko. Kinakabahan ako ha. Hala ate!” she said.

Elysia said that she thought everything was just a dream and couldn’t help but to shed some happy tears.

“Nung nag start na po ‘yung concert, sobrang lapit po talaga. Habang pinapanood ko po sila, hindi po ako makafocus kasi umiiyak po talaga ako.Sa sobraang tuwa na rin po siguro. Kasi ‘yun din po ‘yung desired seat namin. Kaya po good experience and super unforgettable po talaga as a KPop stan po,” she said.

The unexpected plot twist for her first K-pop concert was indeed a once in a lifetime experience.

“Core memory ko na po as an engene fan. Grabe po talaga ‘yung plot twist that time. I saw the happiest me talaga. My 2022 self couldn’t imagine na nandun po sa concert nila, na nanonood at na-wiwitness ng lahat ng ginagawa nila,” she stressed.


Netizens and fellow Engene fans congratulated Elysia for her once in a lifetime experience!

As of writing, the video has already garnered more than 540,000 views on social media.

“Niligtas mo siguro and buong Pilipinas noong past life mo! Amg swerte!” a netizen said in jest.

“Ganitong plot twist lang ang kaya kong tanggapin buong buhay ko,” another netizen said.
