South Korean-based Filipino boy band HORI7ON has joined the red carpet of the first-ever Filipino Music Awards, held on October 21 at the SM Mall of Asia Arena.
In an interview with Billboard Philippines, the “SIX7EEN” singers opened up about carrying the Filipino flag to international stages and how they see the same pride reflected tonight.
“It’s amazing that Filipino music is being recognized and that there is a special night dedicated for it, and it’s always such a nice chance to have for us as a group to be representatives internationally and even here in the Philippines. Of course, we’re very glad as HORI7ON to be here today,” says Vinci, leader of the group.
