Mega Star Arena Kuala Lumpur was set ablaze on April 13, 2025, as the sensational K-pop girl group, Kiss of Life (KIOF), brought their electrifying “Kiss Road” world tour to Malaysia for the very first time. Organized by TopGallant Show, the concert was a resounding success, leaving nearly 3,000 adoring fans, affectionately known as Kissy, breathless and yearning for more.
The atmosphere was electric with anticipation as the clock ticked past 5 PM. The roar of the crowd reached fever pitch when the four members – Julie, Natty, Belle, and Haneul – finally graced the stage. Dressed in striking all-black outfits, they immediately captivated the audience with their powerful opening number, “Get Loud.” The energy was palpable, and the group effortlessly transitioned into “Igloo,” proving they could indeed “melt an igloo” with their fiery performance. “Bad News” followed, further solidifying their dominance of the stage.
After a trio of high-octane performances, the members took a breather to connect with their Malaysian Kissy. Leader Julie shared the story behind “Winehouse,” an unreleased track that debuted during the “Kiss Road” tour and quickly became a fan favorite. The enthusiastic response from the Malaysian crowd confirmed its universal appeal.
The concert then took a more intimate turn as each member showcased their individual talents with solo stages. The first to take the stage, Belle transformed into a “rock star” with her captivating performance of “Countdown,” demonstrating her impressive vocal range with soaring high notes and ad-libs. Julie, armed with only a bench and her undeniable charisma, commanded the stage with “Kitty Cat,” proving her rapping and dancing skills were more than enough to enthrall the audience. The youngest, Haneul brought a touch of aegyo to the stage with her playful cheerleader concept during “Play Love Games,” charming fans with her pom poms and sweet vocals. Natty, the group’s main dancer, dazzled with her solo performance of “Sugarcoat,” showcasing the intricate choreography that highlights her exceptional talent.
A costume change saw the quartet return in camouflage outfits, ready to unleash another set of captivating performances. “Nobody Knows,” “Te Quiero,” and “Gentleman” kept the energy levels soaring. It was during this segment that Haneul playfully hinted at a surprise, expressing her wish to get closer to fans seated further from the stage.
What followed was a truly unforgettable moment. During “No One But Us,” Kiss of Life disappeared from the main stage, leaving fans wondering what was happening. To the delight of those in the second-floor seats, the members suddenly appeared among them, performing the rest of the song up close and personal. This unexpected interaction highlighted the group’s dedication to connecting with their fans on a deeper level.
