Kiss of Life sets Manila ablaze “Kiss Road Tour” with charisma and show-stopping talent

Julie, Natty, Belle and Haneul of Kiss of Life brought the heat to UP Theater for the Manila leg of their Kiss Road: World Tour. Despite the summer weather, the energy inside the venue was even warmer, thanks to the excitement of the Philippine KISSYs.

The show opened with “Get Loud” — a strong start that immediately pulled the crowd in. From that moment, it was clear the night was going to be solid.

A Surprise for Everyone in the Room

The group made sure no one felt left out. At one point, they walked through the theater to greet fans from every angle. There weren’t any bad seats — everyone got to see the members up close, which added something special to the night.

Even without backup dancers or an elaborate setup, Kiss of Life delivered a full experience. Songs like “Igloo,” “Midas Touch,” and “Sticky” stood out, showing their balance of playful and smooth styles.

Individual Performances That Highlighted Their Strengths

Each member had a solo stage. Belle showed her vocal range in “Countdown.” Julie impressed with her moves in “Kitty Cat.” Haneul leaned into her charm for “Play Love Games.” Natty’s “Sugarcoat” felt polished and confident. Each performance gave a different tone, showing their versatility as a group.

The Focus Was Always on the Music

The concert didn’t rely on over-the-top visuals. The stage design was simple with digital screens in the background, which worked well — attention stayed on the four performers. Their setlist reflected the sound that defines Kiss of Life — a mix of pop, hip-hop and R&B, with tracks that are easy to get into. “Nobody Knows” was a standout.

A Solid Show

Kiss of Life didn’t need much to connect with the crowd. Their stage presence, music and the way they interacted with fans made the night feel genuine. For a first concert in the Philippines, it was a good one.
