2026 EDC Korea Announces Global Stars DJ Snake and Tiësto, Plus ATEEZ's HONGJOONG Solo Set

The complete lineup for global EDM festival 2026 EDC Korea was announced with One Pulse Group CEO Loopy Hwang in attendance. Domestic artists including ATEEZ's HONGJOONG, performing as NO1, and UV's MUZIE will join top international DJs including DJ Snake and Tiësto at INSPIRE Resort on October 3 and 4.

One Pulse Group partnered with organizer Insomniac to coproduce EDC Korea last year. This year's performers include Paris-born DJ and producer DJ Snake, who has collaborated with BLACKPINK's LISA and Stray Kids; Dutch electronic-music master Tiësto; Israeli psychedelic-trance duo Vini Vici; and Australian tech-house DJ and producer FISHER. American artist ILLENIUM and Toronto producer Dabin will also stage a collaborative performance. HONGJOONG will notably present a solo set under the name NO1.

Hwang said, 'Korea's EDM market is the best,' adding, 'K-pop is currently one of the world's most powerful genres and is closely related musically to EDM. Famous international DJs naturally work with K-pop artists, as Peggy Gou has with JENNIE and Steve Aoki with BTS.'

EDC Korea is introducing VIP Premium Experience tickets this year, providing dedicated entry routes and restrooms for VIP guests. Unlike last year's April event, the festival has moved to October in consideration of holiday periods in Korea and China.

Hwang also explained his philosophy regarding the EDC stage: 'I have always believed that live music creates a special connection that nothing else can replace. That belief has driven my work in live entertainment for the past decade.' He continued, 'Music can connect people across languages, cultures and borders. That is why EDC carries special meaning for fans around the world.'
