South Korea's cutest trio Sam, William, and Bently Hammington were warmly welcomed by fans during their first Philippine fan meeting titled "The Hammingtons in Juanderland" held on Sunday, July 17, at the New Frontier Theatre.
Sam, William, and Bentley rose to fame in 2016 when they joined the roster for 'The Return of Superman,' a reality show featuring celebrity dads and their children.
The three quickly became fan favorites and eventually brought home the prestigious "Grand Prize" (locally known as "Daesang") at the 2018 KBS Entertainment Awards, along with the other cast.
Since leaving the show in November 2021, Sam and the kids have been busy with different projects such as 'Wilbengers: Suspicious Camping Commotion,' an animated superhero film, a new variety show titled 'The Hammington's Dream Closet,' and their very own YouTube channel, 'THE WILLBEN SHOW,' which has now amassed more than 350,000 subscribers.
