The organizing committee of the '2026 The Fact Music Awards (TMA)' has revealed its second lineup. Six popular artist teams — RESSENNE, xikers, ALPHA DRIVE ONE, EVA, Choi Yena, and CLOSE YOUR EYES — have confirmed their appearances, generating buzz.

RESSENNE has been named to the TMA lineup for the first time since debut, bolstered by active achievements including the viral meme sensation of 'Geoje Yah!', the reverse-chart run of the title track 'LOVE ATTACK', and winning first place on music shows with their remake single 'Pretty Girl.'

xikers takes the stage riding on a career-high achievement, having surpassed 360,000 copies in first-week sales with their 7th mini album 'ROUTE ZERO : The ORA.' ALPHA DRIVE ONE, featuring members from 'Boys II Planet,' also joined the lineup backed by their overwhelming records of surpassing 1.44 million copies in debut album first-week sales and winning four crowns on terrestrial music broadcasts.

EVA, who transitioned from ENHYPEN member to solo artist, confirmed the appearance by topping music charts with the self-produced debut single 'RIDE OR DIE.' Choi Yena steps onto the awards ceremony stage with momentum from surpassing 5.78 million monthly Spotify listeners with 'Catch Catch,' setting the highest record among 4th-generation solo singers.

CLOSE YOUR EYES has confirmed their participation for the second consecutive year, following their 3rd mini album achieving half-million seller status and being named to Billboard's Best K-POP of the First Half of the Year.

Hosted by THE FACT and organized by Fan N Star and UCW, the '2026 The Fact Music Awards' will be held on September 19 at the Busan Asiad Main Stadium. Additional information following the previously revealed first lineup (IDID, ATEEZ, ALLDAY PROJECT, QORS, KIKI, tripleS) will be announced sequentially through the official website.
