Sandara Park, who impressed fans at Acer Day 2024, expressed her excitement about the tour. She called it a “dream come true.”
She even teased a possible Manila stop, saying, “Dapat mayroon din na Manila stop, ‘di ba? At sana dito din kami mag-concert sa MOA Arena, just like before. Let’s pray for that.”
