Diageo partners with global K-Pop star SUHO of EXO to promote responsible drinking in the Philippines, across Asia Pacific

Diageo partners with global K-Pop star SUHO of EXO to promote responsible drinking in the Philippines, across Asia Pacific


Diageo Philippines recently announced the launch of an exciting new regional responsible drinking campaign in Asia Pacific (APAC) with SUHO of K-pop boy group EXO to promote responsible and moderate alcohol consumption. The campaign kicked off in South Korea and will run in the Philippines. 

“At Diageo, we are dedicated to promoting moderation and investing in programmes that encourage responsible alcohol consumption. This groundbreaking campaign with SUHO enables us to tap into the growing influence of K-Culture, engaging adult consumers across Asia Pacific in a creative way to make more mindful choices and embrace moderation.” ~Wilson Del Socorro, Corporate Relations Director, Asia Pacific

The 'Enjoy the Flow, Savour Every Moment’ campaign will feature an original song recorded by SUHO, a music video, and behind-the-scenes footage that emphasizes the importance of savoring each moment and enjoying alcohol in moderation. The track blends familiar sounds from a bar, such as glasses clinking, with sounds of nature and flowing water to produce multiple layers of music. The accompanying lyrics include messages like “take it easy”, “slow down”, and “savour every moment” to remind listeners to drink slow and pace themselves with water. The song, music video, and behind-the-scenes video will be shared across select Diageo social platforms as well as EXO's social channels. 

SUHO, a renowned South Korean singer-songwriter, and actor who leads the group EXO, brings his own unique perspective to the campaign. SUHO, with his superpower ‘water’ in the EXO universe, is expected to align well with one of the key messages of the campaign – that staying hydrated by drinking water regularly is an important way to encourage moderation.

“I’m happy to participate in a purposeful campaign, where I can share meaningful messages for a good cause. Occasionally when I do have a drink, I make sure to drink in moderation. I really like how we’ve weaved into the song and music video messaging around pacing yourself, savouring the moment and not losing yourself.” ~SUHO

In line with other responsible drinking campaigns, this new activation will direct consumers to DRINKiQ.com, a dedicated, responsible drinking website available in 16 languages and 35 country sites. DRINKiQ shares valuable information, practical advice on alcohol consumption, and a range of resources to encourage moderate drinking. During the campaign, the site will spotlight a letter from SUHO on the importance of moderation and practical tips such as pacing drinks with water and enjoying beverages with food. 

Diageo is committed to transforming global drinking habits for the better, promoting moderation, and addressing the harmful use of alcohol. This commitment is integral to Diageo's 10-year sustainability plan, Society 2030: Spirit of Progress that aims to educate consumers on facts about alcohol and reach one billion people with moderation messages by 2030.

B-Boy Engski and B-Girl Yani First-Ever Red Bull BC One Regional Cypher Philippines



B-Boy Engski and B-Girl Yani demonstrated their incredible talent and skill, defeating a competitive field of over 80 other breakers at the first-ever Red Bull BC One Regional Cypher Philippines on March 7, 2024, at Apotheka in Manila.

Among the fierce competition, these two dancers demonstrated exceptional skill, captivating both the audience and the judges, earning them the prestigious title of Red Bull BC One Regional Cypher Philippines Champions. With their victory, they solidify their position as two of the best breakers in the Philippines and begin their journey to the global stage.




As winners of the Red Bull BC One Regional Cypher Philippines, B-Boy Engski and B-Girl Yani, together with second place finishers,  B-Boy Killafour and B-Girl Liz, will travel to Indonesia to represent their country at the upcoming Red Bull BC One Southeast Asia Regional Final this March 22nd. The stakes couldn't be higher, as the regional champion in Indonesia will secure a coveted wild card slot at the Last Chance Cypher  for the Red Bull BC One World Final in Brazil later this year.

“I’m grateful that a big event like this was held here in the Philippines, as the B-boy and B-girl communities are hungry for it. We are grateful, and we hope that they will continue to visit and host large events like this to provide possibilities for us coming from the Philippines.“ ~B-Boy Engksy, Breaker from Quezon City

Meanwhile, B-Girl Yani shared her excitement about the inclusion of B-Girls in the Red Bull BC One Regional Cypher. She sees it as a significant step forward for the breaking community.

“I'm happy because this is the first time Red Bull BC One is in the Philippines and will feature a 1-v-1 category. Now that they've opened it for B-girls, I'm overjoyed and overwhelmed because it's not just for me, but for the entire breaking community.” ~B-Girl Yani

Leading up to the Red Bull BC One Regional Cypher, the Red Bull BC One All Stars engaged with the local dance community through a series of workshops spearheaded by renowned Filipino breakers such as B-Boy Ronnie and B-Girl Logistx. This initiative aimed to foster connections and inspire the next generation of dancers. 

“I think they (Breakers) need more events like this, they need to get more support. And also, we did a session with them and they just need more opportunities to battle, travel, and to build with one another. They need more opportunities to connect within different cities." ~B-Boy Ronnie

B-Girl Logistx also added that the breaking community needs more support, funding, and events like Red Bull BC One.

“A lot of the [Filipino] breakers are so dope, but what I think holds them back in terms of opportunities is just the visibility. So we can have more of that, which people like myself and Ronnie are pitching for. And connecting with others to bring that visibility, and the support here and for them to stay inspired and keep it up, which I know they will.” ~B-Girl Logistx

With breaking included in the Paris Summer Olympics for the first time, the Red Bull BC One All Stars jumped at the chance to connect with the vibrant local dance community. This initiative demonstrated Red Bull's commitment to promoting dance, arts, and culture in the Philippines while also emphasizing the importance of breaking on a global scale.
