Sandara Park reunites with Ryan Bang on flight to Korea

K-pop star Sandara Park had a surprise reunion with fellow entertainer Ryan Bang on a flight back to Korea from the Philippines.

She expressed her surprise and excitement on Instagram Stories, noting their long friendship and extensive conversations during the flight.

Sandara was in Manila to host and perform at the 'Shoot of Asia' exhibition game at the Mall of Asia Arena, where she delighted fans with her Filipino hit "In or Out".

She served as the manager of the South Korean team Rising Eagles, admitting it was a dilemma since several members of the rival team Kuys Showtime are her friends.

Sandara thanked her Filipino fans for their warm support and for creating an unforgettable experience, calling the Philippines her "2nd home".

She first rose to fame in the Philippines through the reality show Star Circle Quest in 2004, launching her career in acting and singing.

Sandara later debuted with the influential K-pop group 2NE1 in 2009 and had a reunion concert in Manila in December 2024.
