K-pop girl group TWICE drew thousands of fans as they held their “This Is For” world tour in the Philippines on Oct. 4 at the Philippine Arena in Bulacan. 

“What a magical night in Bulacan. Thank you, ONCE [fans]!” TWICE posted on Instagram as they completed their concert. 

Two years ago, TWICE held their two-day “Ready to Be” world tour in the country on Sep.30 and Oct. 1, 2023 at the same venue. 

TWICE’s Jihyo, Sana, Tzuyu, Nayeon, Momo, Mina, Dahyun and Chaeyoung dazzled the crowd with their songs and choreography. Jeongyeon was absent due to health reasons. 

They opened the concert with “This Is For” followed by “Strategy,” “Make Me Go,” “Set Me Free,” and “I Can’t Stop Me.”
