TikTok content creator Devin Halbal is in Manila! If you've been spending an ample amount of time scrolling on TikTok, you've likely encountered the American travel influencer's "doll check-ins" and endearing "kudasai" greetings. After all, she's already captured the hearts of almost a million followers since she started sharing her light-hearted travel videos in 2022.

Fresh from her successful tour stops across South Korea, Singapore, and Malaysia, the American internet sensation made her way to the Philippines for a meet and greet with her local admirers. The event, held last Sunday, July 14, saw hundreds of fans flocking to SM Mall of Asia to see the Kudasai queen up close. 

In a TikTok clip posted shortly after the meet and greet, Devin expressed her deep gratitude to her Filipino supporters. "I'm literally crying right now because the Philippines has supported me back when I was doing the doll check-ins in 2022. You guys were my first supporters and my first loves," she emotionally shared in the video.

Netizens couldn't get enough of her all-white Maria Clara-inspired outfit.
