The country's largest J-POP & iconic music festival, Wonderlivet 2025 (WONDERLIVET 2025), has completed its star-studded lineup.
On the 25th, live entertainment brand LIVET and production company Wonder Rock announced an additional 14 acts for the final lineup of Wonderlivet 2025, revealing a total lineup of 42 acts including the 28 acts announced in the first wave.
With this final announcement, Japanese national band Ikimonogakari (Ikimonogakari) was confirmed as the headliner for Saturday the 15th. Ikimonogakari, who achieved eight consecutive Oricon chart No. 1s with studio albums and is well known to domestic fans for songs such as Blue Bird and SAKURA, is expected to lead the excitement on site with broad popular appeal across generations.
Earlier, the Friday the 14th headliner was named as the Japanese rock band BUMP OF CHICKEN (Bump of Chicken), called "a musician's musician," and SPYAIR (Spyair), beloved for OSTs for the popular Japanese animations Gintama and Haikyu!!, will light up the Wonderlivet 2025 stage as the Sunday the 16th headliner.
Newly joining the final lineup of Japanese artists are all-round entertainer ano (ano), who crosses variety shows, drama, and film; Eve (Eve), the mega-hit artist behind the opening theme "Kaikai Kitan" for the animation Jujutsu Kaisen; and THREEE (Threee), a trio whose hit songs have surpassed 100 million streams and who have announced a seven-city Japan tour, proving their popular appeal.
Also returning to Wonderlivet for a second consecutive year is asmi, "the voice most used on social media," and rock vocalist Akiyama Kiro (Akiyama Kiiro), who has raised his presence through participation in notable anime, will enrich the stage.
Next-generation pop icon Mulasaki Ima (Murasaki Ima), who sparked a new short-form craze, and NANAOAKARI (Nanao Akari), whose first visit to Korea sold out all seats in 30 seconds with lightning-fast ticket power, will also appear to meet audiences.
Among domestic artists, talented singer-songwriter Kim Seung-ju, winner of the Yoo Jae-ha Music Contest, and rising band OYSTERS (Oysters), noted on Reels with "Be part of history!", are followed by virtual vocalist Hebi (Hebi), who expresses a unique world with delicate emotional expression and explosive singing power.
They are followed by Daymonse, who proved an upward trend with the recent release of a second studio album and sold-out concerts, alternative band can't be blue (can't be blue) showcasing original music, and live performer Lee Seung-yoon, a three-time winner at the Korean Music Awards, who promise diverse performances.
This year's Wonderlivet lineup draws attention for evenly arranging a genre spectrum that goes beyond buzz—bands, singer-songwriters, and virtual artists—centering on teams whose fandoms and achievements have been verified not only in Korea but also in Japan.
Immediately after the final lineup was revealed, domestic and international music fans reacted that "the three-day headliner puzzle is complete" and "a combination hard to see even in Japan has been realized in Korea," praising the balanced composition of J-POP top artists and domestic musicians.
A timetable that will allow attendees to finalize viewing schedules will be released in October to carry forward the heightened excitement. Given the strong interest since last year's inaugural event, anticipation is rising for Wonderlivet 2025's festival energy and highly polished stages.
Meanwhile, Wonderlivet 2025 is co-hosted and invested in by Kakao Entertainment and Japan's Ticket Pia, with YG PLUS (YG PLUS) joining as a production investor, and tickets are available through Melon Ticket, Ticketlink, Naver Reservation, and Ticket Pia.
