Filipino ENGENEs and BLOOMs, bear witness to the ultimate K-pop and P-pop crossover event from KCON LA.
P-pop phenomenons BINI and K-pop superstars ENHYPEN joined forces for a vibrant dance challenge to the latter’s lead single, “XO (Only If You Say Yes).” The twenty-second video posted to TikTok features BINI members Colet, Stacey, and Sheena grooving alongside ENHYPEN’s Sunoo, Jay, and Hee Sung, demonstrating an electrifying blend of P-pop and K-pop artistry.
The video of the dance challenge quickly made its waves online, with Sheena and Colet expressing their excitement at being able to collaborate with the K-pop group. “Naalala ko tuloy may stan acc[ount] ako for [ENHYPEN] tas tinry ko sumali sa Selca Day, pero cropped mukha ko tas may nagcomment, ‘Omg BINI Sheena?’ tas dinelete ko agad [‘yung] post,” Sheena narrated on her X (formerly Twitter) account. “Hay, my stan acc[ount] won’t believe what just happened today,” she continued.
(I remembered that I had a stan account for ENHYPEN. When I tried to join the Selca Day, I cropped my face out of the picture but someone commented, “Omg BINI Sheena?”, so I immediately deleted the post. But wow, my stan account wouldn’t believe what just happened today!)
Aside from the dance challenge, Sheena also shared her elation at the moment, posting images of herself with a signed copy of ENHYPEN’s recently released album, ROMANCE: UNTOLD.
Both moments occurred during this year’s KCON LA, where BINI made history as the first P-pop group to perform at the renowned Korean culture festival. The group’s performance of their latest single, “Cherry On Top,” was a highlight of the pre-show for “M Countdown,” showcasing their talent and marking a significant milestone for P-pop on an international stage.
Following their groundbreaking appearance at KCON, the group will continue to engage with fans as their BINIverse concert series continues, including several stops across the U.S. and Canada. However, due to fan requests and a desire to accommodate their dedicated supporters, their Grand BINIverse concert has been rescheduled to November 16 and 17, moving from its original October 4 date.
Just last week, both ENHYPEN and BINI made their respective debuts on the Billboard Philippines‘ charts with new entries. ENHYPEN’s “XO (Only If You Say Yes) entered swiftly at the No. 19 spot of the Hot 100, while BINI’s latest single “Cherry On Top” made its way straight to the Top 10 of both the Hot 100 and Top Philippine Songs charts at the positions of No. 8 and No. 5 respectively.
