I’ll remember you this year, how much you love us.”</p><p>After the heartwarming gesture, the seven-member idol supergroup went onstage once again before riding their train-themed moving carts, used by K-pop idols to quickly travel around the venue and interact with fans. There, they sang &quot;Polaroid Love&quot; and got up close once again with the entire stadium.</p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1741103258972IMG_7899.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>As the members bid their final goodbye onstage and left after the encore, the audience was once again surprised by a VTR onscreen titled in Filipino: &quot;Mensahe ng Pagmamahal para sa ENGENE.&quot;</p><p>Heeseung started the kilig-filled video by saying, “In-love na ‘ko sa ENGENE.”</p><p>Jake followed by sharing how much their supporters mean to him.</p><p>“ENGENE, ikaw ang lahat sa’kin,” Jake said.</p><p>Ni-ki expressed how their Filipino fans are great, “The best kayo, ENGENE.”</p><p>Sunghoon shared how thankful he is ending with a finger heart gesture at the end.</p><p>“Ang swerte ko dahil nandiyan ang ENGENE,” he mentioned.</p><p>Jay once again assured their Filipino ENGENEs that he will always be there for them, “Nandito ako palagi para sa inyo.”</p><p>Meanwhile, Jungwon emphasized how the fans complete his days.</p><p>“Hindi masaya ang araw ko kapag wala ang ENGENE,” Jungwon revealed.</p><p>Sunoo ended the video by saying, “Mamahalin kita habambuhay, ENGENE, mahal ko kayo.”</p><p>The members also shared inspiring and caring words with the audience throughout the concert.</p><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1741103300894IMG_7895.jpg" class="fr-fic fr-dib"/></div><p>One of the most memorable moments of the night was Jake’s emotional closing &quot;ment,&quot; or the segment where the idols speak directly to the crowd. In it, Jake wished their beloved ENGENEs genuine happiness amid life’s challenges and triumphs.</p><p>“I want you guys to always feel happy in life. I feel like there’s a lot of ups and downs but I assure you that it’s part of life,” Jake assured their supporters.</p><p>He continued, emphasizing that not only him, but all seven of them, will always be there.</p><p>I want you guys to always be happy. We, the seven of us, are going to be there for you always. Thank you, Mahal kita,&quot; Jake expressed.</p><div><br/></div><div class="twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered" style="display:flex;max-width:550px;width:100%;margin-top:10px;margin-bottom:10px"><iframe id="twitter-widget-4" scrolling="no" frameBorder="0" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" title="X Post" src="https://platform.twitter.com/embed/Tweet.html?dnt=false&amp;embedId=twitter-widget-4&amp;features=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%3D%3D&amp;frame=false&amp;hideCard=false&amp;hideThread=false&amp;id=1890280052908310728&amp;lang=en&amp;origin=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com%2F%23%2Fworkspace%2Fmonitoring%3Fitem%3Durn%3Anewsml%3Aod2-workbench-api.abs-cbn.com%3A2025-03-04T02%3A57%3A39.724617%3A7917ab28-05c4-48f3-b9fb-b406fb3ee39e%26action%3Dedit&amp;sessionId=6182052bafcea36e4dc2e13aeb3c612153c1952f&amp;theme=light&amp;widgetsVersion=2615f7e52b7e0%3A1702314776716&amp;width=550px" style="position:static;visibility:visible;width:550px;height:769px;display:block;flex-grow:1" data-tweet-id="1890280052908310728"></iframe></div><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charSet="utf-8"></script><div><br/></div><p>Meanwhile, the Filipino ENGENEs made sure to show their support for ENHYPEN with their own fan projects at this year’s concert.</p><p>The specially made acts included bat-shaped hand banners, which were a reference to ENHYPEN’s vampire-themed videos and projects.
