K-pop girl group NMIXX completed their first global showcase tour in Manila, spanning 14 shows in 13 cities and regions.
On June 30, the six-member group composed of Jiwoo, Haewoon, Lily, Sullyoon, Bae and Kyujin, met Filipino fans at their “Nice To MIXX You” show at the New Frontier Theater.

NMIXX finished the tour in two months, starting it in Seattle, Washington on May 2 followed by seven other places in the US: San Jose, Los Angeles, Dallas, Houston, Atlanta, Washington, D.C. and Brooklyn.
From the US, NMIXX held the showcase tour in Bangkok on June 4 followed by Jakarta, Taipei (two shows), Singapore and Manila as the final stop.
During the show in Manila, NMIXX surprised the audience by performing the children’s song “Kung Ikaw ay Masaya [If You Are Happy]” the Filipino version of "If You’re Happy And You Know It."
NMIXX debuted in the music scene under JYP Entertainment in February 2022 with the album “Ad Mare.”
They started their Manila set with “Tank,” followed by “O.O.,” which are songs in their debut album “Ad Mare.”
“I’m so happy we were able to do this overseas tour and I’m really excited for our final stop here tonight,” said Jiwoo.
“Finally this is our last showcase tour ‘Nice to MIXX You’ so I’m so sad but I’ll try my best,” said Kyujin.

Lily said, “I’m so excited to come to the Philippines and meet Manila Nswers [fans] today. Your energy has been amazing so far.”
NMIXX also performed “Paxxword,” “Just Did It,” “Young, Dumb, Stupid,” “Dice,” “Cool (Your Rainbow),” “My Gosh,” “Home” and “Love Me Like This.”
They also covered K-pop group TWICE’s 2016 hit song “TT” and David Guetta’s “Hey Mama.”
NMIXX members were touched (and Sullyoon and Jiwoo even cried) when a fan-made video by Filipino Nswers was shown during the show. The video showed clips of NMIXX and messages by Filipino fans.
“You are all growing perfectly. You’ve always been thankful to us. This time we wanted to thank you. We will always cherish this moment. We will always be with NMIXX side no matter what,” according to the video.
In response, Haewon said, “We promise we will always be by your side.”
Kyujin said, “As how much love our Nswers are giving to us, we will do our best to repay you with more love. I hope all of us can stay together more and more and more healthier in the future. That’s a promise.”
“It’s been long time coming and thank you so much for waiting. We want to see you guys so much,” said Lily.
“Manila is the last city of our showcase tour. I think we can finish it with a smile because we can definitely feel your love during the showcase tour,” said Haewon.
