WayV, EVAN and A2O LITE Join Fourth Lineup for ‘D Awards 2027 in Paris’

WayV, EVAN and A2O LITE will perform at the D Awards 2027 in Paris. The latest additions bring together an internationally active group, a solo artist and rising rookies, building anticipation for the K-pop event in the French capital.

Organizers announced the fourth performance lineup on October 28. The ceremony will take place on January 15 and 16, 2027, at Plenitude Arena, formerly La Défense Arena, in Paris, France. The three acts were listed in order of debut.

Since debuting in 2019, WayV has expanded its fanbase across Asia and other global music markets with polished music and accomplished performances. The group released its eighth mini album, ‘Vision Wings,’ in August. Fans are looking forward to seeing how its extensive international stage experience will translate to its Paris performance.

EVAN launched his solo career in June with the debut single ‘Ride or Die,’ followed by his first mini album, ‘DEATH OF ME,’ in September. He has helped shape his artistic identity through direct involvement in songwriting, composition and visual direction for his solo releases, raising anticipation for his awards-show stage.

Rookie act A2O LITE, which debuted in the second half of this year, has also confirmed its appearance in Paris. Its debut track ‘NEON’ earned results on major domestic and international music charts and music shows, while social media challenges drew further attention. The overseas awards appearance will give the group an opportunity to introduce its music and performances to global fans early in its career.

The D Awards previously announced performers across three lineup reveals. TWICE’s JIHYO will serve as the main host and a performer, while TOMORROW X TOGETHER and P1Harmony are also confirmed to appear. The latest additions further broaden a roster spanning groups, solo artists and rookies, with each act bringing a distinct musical identity.

Now approaching its third edition, the D Awards is jointly hosted by Sports Donga and WSM and jointly organized by WSM and Story Peak Global. Channel A is the event’s domestic broadcast partner. The fifth lineup, detailed schedules for both days and official ticket information will be announced in stages, with further updates providing additional performers and individual performance dates.
