The quintet will perform in several cities, including Seoul, Bangkok, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur. The concert in Kuala Lumpur will take place on 12th December 2025 (Friday) at Zepp Kuala Lumpur. This upcoming concert marks MWAM's return to Malaysia after their 2023 concert at Zepp Kuala Lumpur. The show was a smashing success, and the band promised to return to KL as soon as they could. Two years later, the act kept that promise and will showcase more of their hit songs, including tracks from their latest EP, 'XV e.p.', which commemorates their 15 years in the music industry. MWAM debuted in 2010 and became a worldwide sensation, thanks to their music collaborations with anime, live-action movies, and video games. The band has performed opening and ending songs for anime like 'Demon Slayer', 'The Seven Deadly Sins' and 'Gundam'. They're widely recognised for their iconic wolf masks, which they wear during public appearances and concerts.

(Video) From Joking Around To Practising Local Songs: What Happened Backstage At BTOB's KL Show
BTOB (비투비) just dropped the behind-the-scenes video from their '3, 2, 1 GO! MELympic' fan-concert in Kuala Lumpur from April 19, 2025. Being a fly on the wall in this scenario might've led to some melting and serious fangirling (or fanboying) – see the time they became school boys for reference. From the group that brought you 'Pray (I'll Be Your Man)' and 'Missing You', the aegyo was off the charts, all this while doing the serious prep work for putting on a show. Whether it was mic checks, playful banter about 'fried rice,' or last-minute Malay practice, how are they just as charming behind the curtains as on stage? The video opens with the members greeting each other and preparing for rehearsal. Despite leader Eunkwang's (은광) ankle injury, he is seen energetically participating in the rehearsal while seated, unable to resist dancing from the waist up. Mic checks, warm-up banter, and playful moments. At one point, the group discovered the name of the concert's organiser, Fried Rice Entertainment, only to mistake it for a catering company. In another memorable segment, the group practised part of the local classic 'Saya Anak Malaysia', expressing excitement to connect with their Malaysian fans in a more personal way. Hyunsik (현식) even went full multilingual, practising four languages—Korean, English, Chinese, and Malay—for the fan interaction moments. Just before the concert, Eunkwang lamented missing his chance to snap a selfie in a beret outfit due to a quick costume change, prompting a mini photo mission backstage. The vlog also features snippets of the members getting ready in their custom-made T-shirts, optimising their cuteness for the acts later, and sharing thoughts on reconnecting with Melodys in Malaysia after a seven-year wait. During the MELympic games, Peniel (프니엘) and Minhyuk (민혁) shine as they lead their teams during the fan-interactive portion of the concert, filled with competitive shooting games, ball-rolling races, and a lighthearted aegyo competition. The energy from Melodys in the crowd really lifted the group's spirits, making it the highlight of the video. Toward the end, fans surprised BTOB with a touching tribute video and group sing-along, visibly moving the members. In return, BTOB expressed their gratitude and love, promising to return to Malaysia soon. Eunkwang commented, 'Seven years' worth of energy just exploded all at once,' which captures the emotional weight of the reunion. As the video ended, the members shared their reflections. The boys expressed their love and commented, 'This was a nice chance to recharge from the fan love', before warping space and time by teleporting to their next stop—Hong Kong.
