MANILA, Philippines—The Hallyu Wave, with its breathtaking graphics and flawlessly honed performances, is one of the primary interest groups that took the world by storm during the pandemic. Although the K-Pop and K-Hiphop scenes were around before the year 2020, there is no denying that the fandom has grown significantly.
Although not a novice to the music biz, EPIK HIGH has been driving the Hallyu Wave as a household name since 2003, engaging the public with catchy tunes and lyrics that speak volumes about the inner workings of their minds. Here are a few of the grounds for their continuous success in music after almost 20 years.

They’re a refreshing spin to your daily playlist. When we think of Korean artists, we immediately picture groups of people dancing to upbeat dance music while donning matching outfits. EPIK HIGH, on the other hand, makes music that is both simple to listen to and speaks to your spirit. There is something for everyone in their extensive discography. There is music for everyone, from upbeat tunes to keep you moving to lullabies to help you relax at the end of the day. Just for cats, lullabies have been written.
We enjoy as fans when our favorite musicians communicate and work with other musicians. With EPIK HIGH, not only do they collaborate, they bring out the best in whoever they collaborate with. They give the artist they are paired with equal attention, allowing them to take centre stage fully while simultaneously focusing on their own parts. No matter how many artists are on a track, the EPIK HIGH magic always works.
EPIK HIGH has remained distinctive for so long in the midst of the current music scene’s abundance of artists. When you ask the general public what makes EPIK HIGH so special, the one thing everyone agrees on is that their live performances are on another level. Following the group’s signature catchphrase “My High is Epik”, when they take the stage, it’s always a great time when the group takes the stage because they radiate so much enthusiasm that anyone in the audience is swept up in it.
