‘Soundberry Festa’(SOUNDBERRY FESTA) 26

The second lineup for ‘Soundberry Festa’ 26, set to awaken the senses this summer, has been announced. Notably, its identity has been further strengthened as an ‘all-genre festival’ that breaks down genre boundaries.

‘SOUNDBERRY FESTA’ 26 (hereinafter, Soundberry Festa)’ has drawn attention by unveiling a dazzling second lineup as a leading indoor music festival in Korea set to thrill music fans. Soundberry Festa will be held over two days, from July 18 to 19, at KINTEX in Ilsan.

The second lineup adds a total of eight acts: Mega Shinnosuke, Myuk, Song Sohee, Thornapple, Jung Sumin, Jung Woo, Hi-Fi Un!corn, and Han Yo Han. In particular, with distinctive overseas artists joining again this year following last year, observers say it has further solidified its identity as an ‘all-genre festival’ that dismantles genre boundaries.

With the second lineup revealed and the day-by-day roster confirmed, expectations are rising among audiences waiting for the general ticket release. On social media and online communities, reactions include “It does not disappoint this year either after last year”, “A truly fresh lineup”, and “This is one you have to go to on both days”.

A particular highlight of the lineup is the addition of next-generation artists emerging in the Japanese music market. Japanese singer-songwriter Myuk, performing on July 18, will present their first performance in Korea through this Soundberry Festa. Having captured global fans through theme songs for major works such as the animation ‘The Promised Neverland’ Season 2 and the film ‘The Concierge of the Northern Department Store’, Myuk is expected to deliver a deep resonance to domestic audiences with their characteristically delicate and transparent voice.

Next, appearing on the 19th, Mega Shinnosuke is the driving force behind the ‘Love and YouとU(Ai To U))’ craze on short-form platforms. A multi-artist who directs everything from lyric writing, composing, and arranging to album visual production, they have earned strong support from the MZ generation with a trendy sound that spans city pop, rock, and hip-hop. In particular, having recently drawn buzz in Korea through a collaboration with the group ILLIT, there is keen anticipation for the uniquely energetic performance they will bring to this stage.

Artists who are building a vivid musical world of their own beyond conventional molds also draw attention. Song Sohee, a contemporary singer-songwriter who expands the resonance of tradition based on Gyeonggi folk songs; Jung Woo, who explores inner emotions with density while freely crossing the borders of folk, rock, and pop; and Jung Sumin, gaining notice for a trendy sound and emotive vocals, are the standouts. They share the common ground of reinterpreting genres in their own ways and presenting ‘storytelling-driven music’ that moves audiences.

A robust, band-centered lineup will further maximize the festival’s dynamic energy. Thornapple, which enjoys firm support in the domestic band scene for music that meticulously traces lines of emotion within a dreamy atmosphere, is expected to elevate immersion with an overwhelming live performance. Joining them, Hi-Fi Un!cornrising as a global rookie with solid musicianship and a refreshing pop-rock soundand Han Yo Han, a representative performance-driven artist who commands the stage with intense music combining hip-hop and rock, are set to amplify the on-site energy.

A Soundberry Festa representative said, “We built the lineup with a focus on musical diversity that anyone can enjoy,” adding, ”Please look forward to and take great interest in the additional lineup to be announced going forward.”
