Hours after his press conference in Taguig, Lee Seung Gi held his first concert at the New Frontier Theater. The show had begun with an opening VCR of the singer’s debut days to the present until Lee Seung Gi entered the stage to perform “The Dreamer’s Dream“, “Wind“, and “Return.”

With all the overwhelming cheers from the crowd, Lee Seung Gi felt ecstatic to perform more for the Filipino Airens. He expressed, “As I was singing, I felt like I was singing a rock.

It’s not only him who gained energy from the fans, but also his band. According to the singer, his band played exceptionally well that night. Lee Seung Gi added, “The Philippines is the best!

As part of his 20th-anniversary album next year, he also asked his fans to look forward to the new album he is working on in collaboration with his seniors, juniors, and producers. He wanted to work with the people he met in his career because the past 19 years hold so many memories. 

The singer sang his tracks “Ordinary Woman,” “Forest,” “Circle,” and “Like A Flower.” Additionally, he performed an unreleased song that surprised the Filipino Airens. 

Lee Seung Gi shared that he showed different sides of himself in each song through the seasons—spring, summer, autumn, and winter. He enjoyed the flexibility of a concert, as there was an opportunity to communicate with the fans and change the setlist.
