The stage lit up with electrifying performances and appearances from a diverse lineup, including NewJeans, LE SSERAFIM, SEVENTEEN’s BSS, ZEROBASEONE, BOYNEXTDOOR, Stray Kids, ITZY, THE BOYZ, NMIXX, Kwon Eunbi, Kep1er, SB19, Dreamcatcher, KARD, AKMU, &TEAM, Lee Youngji, STAYC, Ash Island, and many more. The event also featured appearances from renowned K-drama stars such as Ahn Hyo Aeop, Kim Seon Ho, Kim Se Jeong, and Moon Ga Young.
