Energy, rhythm, and flavor came together as Angel’s Pizza launched its new Bulgogi Gochujang Pizza with an electrifying K-pop dance competition held on Oct. 25, 2025, at Viva Café, Cyberpark Tower 1, Araneta City, Cubao.
The nationwide Angel’s Pizza K-pop Dance Contest 2025 was organized to celebrate the introduction of the brand’s newest creation, the Bulgogi Gochujang Pizza. The bold new flavor takes inspiration from Korea’s signature savory-sweet profile, blending tender beef bulgogi and the distinct spice of gochujang sauce.
To mark the launch, Angel’s Pizza invited dance groups from across the Philippines to showcase their creativity and passion through K-pop choreography. From June 10 to Oct. 5, 2025, the contest drew more than 100 entries nationwide. After several rounds of screening, six finalists advanced to the grand stage: ALPHA from Sampaloc, Manila; BANJEON from Cavite City; M.Y Crew from North Caloocan; MUV PH from Bauan, Batangas; Meraki PH from Mandaluyong; and VIXENS from San Pablo City, Laguna.
Each crew delivered high-energy performances marked by synchronized choreography, expressive movement, and crowd-pulling charisma.
Following a night of intense competition, Meraki PH from Mandaluyong was crowned grand champion, earning ₱100,000. M.Y Crew from North Caloocan placed second and received ₱50,000, while ALPHA from Sampaloc, Manila secured third place with ₱25,000.
“This event is more than a competition, it’s a celebration of creativity, community, and culture,” said John Laderas, brand manager of Angel’s Pizza. “Just like our new Bulgogi Gochujang Pizza, this contest blends Korean-inspired energy with Filipino talent and passion. We wanted to give young performers a platform to express themselves while sharing the joy of our newest flavor.”
The grand finals drew fans and supporters who filled the venue with cheers and applause. The event also underscored Angel’s Pizza’s growing connection to youth culture through music, dance, and shared experiences.
Angel’s Pizza expressed its gratitude to all participating groups, guests, and partners who made the competition a success. Fans can relive highlights and watch the winning performances on Angel’s Pizza’s official TikTok, Facebook, and Instagram pages.
The event was presented by Angel’s Pizza, part of Figaro Coffee Group Inc. (FCG). Incorporated in 2018, FCG operates several restaurant brands through its subsidiary, Figaro Coffee Systems Inc., including Figaro Coffee, Angel’s Pizza, Tien Ma’s, Koobideh Kebabs, and Café Portofino.
