A fan-made video presented by Filipino fans made Mamamoo members cry. The video contained messages of love and support for Mamamoo. 

“Destined to be with Mamamoo,” the message in the video read. 

“We knew that Philippine Moomoos (fans) were waiting but we did not expect that your waiting was this hot. Thank you so much for the beautiful event that you prepared for us,” said Solar. 

Hwasa said, “I didn’t know why my tears kept on falling.” 

“We will make sure we will come back,” said Solar, who was also presented with a cake to celebrate her birthday on Feb. 21. 

As they were about to wrap up their concert, Wheein said, “We really cannot express in words how thrilled we are right now.” 

“I want you to know that we deeply feel your passion,” said Moonbyul. 

Solar told the crowd, “So amazing! I lived in the Philippines when I was in elementary. During our flight going here, I felt a little different. We will really make sure that we will return to the Philippines.” 

“I think through this tour, I gained very meaningful moments. And if we think Manila is our final stop of our tour, we are so thankful because we are overwhelmed because of you. We will always remember your passion for us. We will come back. Please wait for us,” said Wheein.

Hwasa said, “Thank you very much. These days I’m thinking of slowing down and resting. But while I was performing in front of you, what crossed my mind was I will further improve. We will come back.” 

“The truth is I didn’t plan to cry today. I didn’t want to cry. You made me cry. We thank you for giving us your time,” said Moonbyul.
