The MARTS: Kakkoii & Kawaii Riverbanks Center Sat, July 26 10:00 AM - 8:00 PM The MARTS: Kakkoii & Kawaii hits Riverbanks Center on July 26-27—an art market celebrating cool, cute, and Japanese-inspired creations from local artists.

Last July 12, the Araneta Coliseum was packed as fans gathered to welcome back the Ultimate Oppa Park Seo Jun (PSJ) for his much-anticipated Fan Fest in collaboration with Century Tuna. 

Organized by Wilbros Live, this event was nothing short of spectacular, which is due to PSJ’s jaw-dropping visuals and irresistible charm that definitely brought some sunshine to the Philippine skies! But the crème de la crème of the show were the fan-dedicated segments and program that Century Tuna prepared for the Hallyu superstar and his beloved fans.

From laugh-out-loud games to the kilig-worthy moments, here’s why PSJ’s Ultimate Fan Fest will stay with us long after the final confetti falls to the ground. 

Kilig Highlights That Got Fans Talking

From the numerous social media posts and reels, there’s no doubt that this was no ordinary fan meet. Park Seo Jun served main character moments all night long through Q&A discourses and fun games where he got to interact with some lucky fans on stage. 

The newest Superbod didn’t hold back on the kilig when he paired up with one lucky fan to fulfill her K-Drama leading lady fantasy in a special segment called “Two Minutes with PSJ.” This was probably our favorite part of the show as we watched the lucky fan go through every K-Drama romantic moment from being given flowers by PSJ, watching a movie with him side by side, and being kept warm with a blanket over her shoulders, which, yes, the actor put on himself! That sweet hug they shared at the end was the perfect conclusion for their two-minute K-Drama scene. Fans will never be over it — truly a #SanaAll moment!

The love kept pouring throughout the evening, and overflowed even to the outside of the main dome as seen from the heartfelt messages fans wrote on the Hallyu Wave Wall in the lobby. In true fan meet fashion, Park Seo Jun took the time to read and watch the touching tributes sent his way on stage, soliciting cheers from everyone. 

#ProteinFit Tips You Can’t Help But Repeat

The fun continues with more games and even a Q&A segment with the actor, where he shared his fitness routines and some other personal tidbits. Prior to the show, The Beat Manila got to attend the press conference where he shared his favorite way of enjoying Century Tuna.

“Since Century Tuna has a very pure taste, I wouldn’t want to waste that by adding some seasoning or different tastes,” he said. “I would enjoy [Century Tuna] the most by adding it to a salad, so we have a balance of protein and vegetables.”

He also added how he ate a lot of the product during the shoot, which can be seen in the video campaign. He also stated that the best way to enjoy Century Tuna is with seaweed. Safe to say, local supermarkets need to start stocking up on seaweed because how else are we going to eat Century Tuna from now on?

“Looking at the brand itself, it’s very red, so it leaves a big impression,” he shared. “That’s what I remember working with Century Tuna the most. I had so much fun!”

The “Fight for My Way” actor also shared his usual workout routine, which involves half an hour of stretching, 40 minutes of strength training, and running for at least five kilometers. No wonder he’s so fit! He also talked about how maintaining good physical health does wonders for our mental health, so people should strive to keep their bodies nurtured and fit. 

“For us to have a healthy mind, we must first have a healthy body. If you have difficulty running or starting a difficult exercise, you can start by walking and doing simple exercises.”

At the fan meet, PSJ shared that he tries to exercise at least 30 minutes a day despite his busy schedule. Fans and fellow Century Tuna ambassadors like Anne Curtis and the Superbods listened intently to his tips on maintaining a healthy physique, and of course, how Century Tuna plays a role in his everyday nutrition. This makes him the perfect #CenturyTunaOppa because staying healthy doesn’t mean flavor should be sacrificed for nutrition. Rather, it’s about ensuring you get the best of both worlds!

He was also game to put his imaginary chef hat on, joining a recipe demo that featured Century Tuna’s Flakes in Oil, ideal for people who are always on the go, as it's an easy and simple protein fix. With talent, looks, and good kitchen skills? What can he NOT do?

Filipino fans may have had their share of Hallyu fan meets, but this one hits different. We can’t wait to see more of his collaboration with the brand and catch more glimpses of his health-loving side that will hopefully inspire fans — and the nation — to pursue healthier lifestyles.
