The 9-member boy group, Cravity, set the stage of Manila ablaze with their "First World Tour: Masterpiece in Manila" held on Saturday, August 5 at the New Frontier Theater.
Members Serim, Allen, Jungmo, Woobin, Wonjin, Minhee, Hyeongjun, Taeyoung, and Seongmin graced the stage with their presence, performing their chart-topping hits like "Flip the Frame," "Bad Habits," "Gas Pedal," "Fly," and "Jumper," much to the delight of their devoted fans, fondly known as "LUVITYs."

Adding a Filipino twist to their impressive performance, Cravity even embraced the Pinoy music scene by dancing to the hit track 'Gento' by the P-Pop boy group, SB19.
Prior to their Manila concert, Cravity made waves on social media with their 'Gento' dance cover on TikTok, which amassed 2 million views and counting.

Beyond their musical prowess, the group took a detour to explore Filipino food, singling out some local delights they dubbed the "most delicious."
Their favorites included the gravy from a renowned fast-food chain and the classic pancit palabok.

Apart from delivering spectacular performances, the LUVITYs exhibited their creativity and devotion. One fan turned up dressed like a bride, while another perfectly matched one of Cravity's official concert outfits.

Manila marked the second-to-last stop of Cravity's Masterpiece Concert Tour, which commenced in Seoul, Korea, back in May.
Despite it being their first visit to the Philippines, Cravity members quickly picked up some Filipino phrases such as "Beshy," "Kamusta, kaya mo 'yan," and, in the case of Hyeongjun, the ever-important "Saan po yung CR?"
Debuting under Starship Entertainment in April 2020, Cravity first emerged with their EP "Hideout: Remember Who We Are Season 1," featuring hits like "Top of the Chain," "Break All the Rules," "Jumper," and "Blackout."
Before rising to fame as a collective, Cravity's members Jungmo, Wonjin, Minhee, and Hyeongjun honed their skills through participation in the South Korean boy group survival reality show "Produce X 101."
The event is made possible by DNM Entertainment.
