WonKyuHyuk in Manila

So yesterday and the day before was such a riot for PhElfs because Siwon tweeted on the night of the first of January, "On my way to the airport now going to MANILA! A new year new night in the MANILA PHILIPINES ! Yoohoo!" 

Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr were being flooded with spazzing and flailing of PhElfs because of this news and everyone was already freaking out and getting ready to rush to the airport to greet him. What's more is that there were rumours of Kyuhyun coming along, and then rumours of Eunhyuk also coming. Soon after there were rumours of other members coming along. It got so bad that someone made a joke about it saying that the whole of Super Junior was coming and so was SHINee and that EXO was making their debut here. 

Soon enough photos of the PhElfs waiting at NAIA for Siwon (and the other two members we weren't sure were coming as well) flooded the social networking sites and made us both jealous and proud that they were there to greet our idols. 

When they arrived at 11 pm, there was much more flailing and spazzing to be had as Siwon tweeted, "just arrived. whats up manila! still new day here!" complete with a picture of the horrendously long lines at customs. The fans still were not able to confirm who else was with Siwon aside from Kyuhyun. 

It was said that they had to go through the departure area because the fans were crowding the arrival too much. 

There was much speculation about the reasons for their arrival. Some say that it was for Penshoppe, others say that it was for Bench, and others said that it was for some other unrelated thing. But Siwon clarified in a tweet that he was there for an advertisement shoot. 

The following day, Siwon greeted the morning again with a tweet "good morning beautiful world. first day in philipines. Its so beautiful sunrise. It will be lovely day. God bless!" and a picture of the view outside his hotel room which confused a lot of the fans because they heard the night before that they would be staying at Edsa Shangrila but the view of the outside was of Makati which was in a completely different area. Fans who were waiting at the lobby of the earlier hotel left. 

Siwon was basically helping the fans find out where they were by tweeting their exact locations such as "Now We are at Orchard Road Metro Manila‎ Quezon City." And so fans fled to Eastwood and crowded around their shooting area. It was then that they were able to confirm that it definitely was Siwon Kyuhyun and Eunhyuk who were here. Pictures and videos of their shooting were taken even if it wasn't allowed so some of the staff were angered by this. The staff also had to constantly ask the fans to keep quiet and to move. At some point even Siwon had to ask the fans to move. 

When they moved to their next location, Intramuros, there was a lot of commotion because a lot more fans showed up and were crowding the bus that they were using. The head of the Super Junior United PH spoke to one of the staff and they got into an agreement that if the fans kept quiet and behaved, they would be able to engage in a fanmeet. So for a while the fans obliged with the request, sat and stayed quiet, until the time when the three idols stepped down from the bus. A fan rushed to the three, pushed Siwon and Eunhyuk away to hug Kyuhyun which caused a commotion which also caused the three to run back into the bus. This ultimately caused the fanmeet to be cancelled as well as the shooting because of the unruliness of some fans.
