FTISLAND made a triumphant return to Malaysia on 15 November 2025 (Saturday) with their 2025 LIVE “MAD HAPPY” concert at Mega Star Arena. From the very first chord, the venue was alive with electricity, the crowd standing and jumping in unison, the floor shaking with the force of Malaysian primadonnas embracing every beat.

The show kicked off with the band playing live, of course, setting the stage for an evening where the energy never dipped. From start to finish, fans vibed, headbanged, and sang along, embodying the very essence of the “MAD HAPPY” concept.

Hong Ki explained the theme behind the concert, emphasizing that it was all about letting fans have fun crazily. Despite wearing a brace due to a back injury, Hong Ki’s energy never faltered, proving no obstacle could slow him down.

One of the night’s most emotional moments came with Minhwan’s return. Having been on hiatus last year, Minhwan was warmly welcomed by fans, expressing heartfelt gratitude for their patience and apologizing for the time away. His sincerity drew tears and cheers alike, while Hong Ki casually munched on bananas nearby, adding a touch of levity to the moving exchange.

Jaejin also shared his admiration for the boundless Malaysian energy, noting how fans could jump, sing, and film simultaneously, something he admitted he could never manage himself. He also joked about Hong Ki eating bananas mid-performance, a necessity fueled by the endless stamina of the crowd.

Musically, the concert leaned into high-energy, summer-themed rock tracks rather than FTISLAND’s typical chart-toppers. Highlights included the band’s first-ever performance of “LOVE IN THE CITY” in Malaysia. They expressed their hope to return even more often and hinted at wanting to bring FTSODE to Malaysia in the future, making the night feel intimate, exciting, and historic.

As the final notes reverberated through Mega Star Arena, it was clear that the night had captured everything the “MAD HAPPY” concept promised: pure, unbridled fun, shared between a band and its devoted fans. Special thanks to CK Star Entertainment Malaysia for inviting us.
