Super Junior held their sold-out concert last October 4, 2025, at the SM Mall of Asia Arena – a spectacular night of music and memories as the group celebrated their 20th anniversary. That’s two decades of chart-topping hits, unforgettable performances, and the unwavering love of E.L.F!
Presented by PULP Live World – the same team that made history by bringing Super Junior to the Philippines in 2010 for Super Show 2, the first-ever K-pop concert in the country – Super Show 10 felt like a full-circle moment in their journey with Filipino E.L.F. Energy was sky-high as Leeteuk, Heechul, Yesung, Shindong, Eunhyuk, Donghae, Siwon, Ryeowook, and Kyuhyun lit up the stage with powerhouse vocals, dazzling visuals, and that unmistakable Super Junior charisma.
The group kicked off the night with their debut track “Twins (Knock Out)”, followed by a non-stop performance of early hits like “U,” “Black Suit,” and “Mamacita.” True to their title as the Kings of Hallyu, their setlist was packed with hits — from powerful dance anthems like “Mr. Simple,” “Bonamana,” and “Sorry Sorry” to heartfelt ballads, novelty songs, and their latest release “Express Mode.” The concert played like a time capsule of their colorful career, a testament to why they’ve endured for two decades in the ever-evolving world of K-pop.
A particularly touching moment came when the group presented a short film about a young E.L.F. whose life had been deeply shaped by Super Junior. As she grew older and faced life’s challenges, she placed her memories as a fan, symbolized by a small box under her table aside. Years later, while packing to move out, she rediscovers the box and must decide whether to throw it away or keep it. Choosing to keep it reignites her love for Super Junior. The story struck a chord with many in the audience, fans who may have paused their fandom over the years but found their way back to the group who once made them believe in something special.
During their talk segments, the members expressed heartfelt gratitude to their Filipino E.L.F.s and reminisced about their many memories in the Philippines. They also acknowledged fan efforts and special projects, including the 2025 “Sorry Sorry” dance cover by the Cebu Dancing Inmates, which earned cheers and laughter from both the members and the crowd.
After 20 years, Super Junior continues to prove that their legacy is built not just on music, but on the bond they’ve nurtured with fans around the world — and in the Philippines, that connection remains as strong as ever.
