“Pantropiko,” which was released in November 2023, was composed and written by Jumbo De Belen, Paula Chaves, Angelika Ortiz and Mart Sam Emmanuel Olavides. The song went viral on social media, eventually bringing immense fame to the P-pop female octet.
The track has been covered by many celebrities including Mamamoo’s Solar, UNIS’ Gehlee Dangca, Elisia Parmisano, Lim Seowon and Janella Salvador, to name a few.
Meanwhile, Red Velvet’s Irene did a short cover of the song during a fan call, as captured by a fan account on X.
