"KMA 2026" has finally completed its final lineup of 15 acts.
On the 19th, the organizing committee of "KMA 2026 (KM Chart Awards 2026)" suddenly unveiled the second lineup, packed with trendsetting artists active on the world stage and powerful major rookies.
The second lineup released this time includes P1Harmony, Hi-Fi Un!corn, ZEROBASEONE, UNIS, Hearts2Hearts, NEWBEAT, ALPHA DRIVE ONE, and MODYSSEY, among a total of eight teams.
First, P1Harmony, which in March broke its own record by surpassing 500,000 first-week sales with its ninth mini album, will take the stage. After entering No. 4 on the Billboard 200, the main album chart of the U.S. Billboard, and drawing intense foreign media attention, they are expected to demonstrate their even stronger global presence.
Hi-Fi Un!corn, who has shown the depth of a fourth-year act moving between Korea and Japan, and ZEROBASEONE, which recently reorganized from nine members to five and announced a fresh start, have also drawn strong interest by joining. In particular, ZEROBASEONE is expected to greet fans by appearing on the "KMA 2026" stage at the same time as releasing new music, including the new title track "Top 5."
Also, UNIS, selected by Billboard as a "K-pop rookie" and recently completing a successful North American tour of 14 cities, has joined the lineup, adding to the event's global firepower.
Hearts2Hearts, whose song "RUDE!" topped China's QQ Music K-pop weekly chart for seven consecutive weeks and recorded 3.6 billion cumulative short-form views, and NEWBEAT, which has formed a dominant fandom in the Chinese-speaking market and has rapidly risen as the "next-generation K-pop icon," are preparing perfect stages.
Also joining are the "super rookie" ALPHA DRIVE ONE, which set a terrifying record by selling 1.44 million copies in its first week upon debut in January and won four music show trophies, and MODYSSEY, which showed a frightening upward trend by ranking second in first-week sales among groups debuting in 2026 (surpassing 300,000 copies), raising expectations that they will bring the ceremony's excitement to a peak.
With this, "KMA 2026" has completed its final lineup of 15 acts, including the previously announced first lineup of TOMORROW X TOGETHER, 82MAJOR, VVUP, KickFlip, ALLDAY PROJECT, CORTIS, and LNGSHOT, opening the stage for a K-pop festival.
