Boy group 82MAJOR is accelerating its global activities by performing at the '2026 K World Dream Awards' ahead of its new single comeback.

82MAJOR will appear at the '2026 K World Dream Awards' held today at KINTEX in Goyang, Gyeonggi Province. True to its reputation as a 'performance-oriented idol' group, the act plans to heat up the venue with energetic stage manners, solid live vocals, and powerful performances.

The group has already proven its global influence. With 'Sign,' the title track of its fifth mini album, 82MAJOR ranked 9th on Billboard's '25 Best K-Pop Songs of 2026.' The group has also been expanding its presence in the Chinese-speaking market, entering China's QQ Music chart and appearing at '2026 TIMA.'

The comeback buzz is also running hot. The group has been sequentially releasing various teasing content for its second single 'HEAT,' including a visual film, concept photos, and a highlight medley. In particular, expectations are mounting over what musical world the group will unfold with the new release, as the members directly participated in writing, composing, and arranging the songs, showcasing their capabilities as a 'self-producing idol' group.

Meanwhile, 82MAJOR's second single 'HEAT' will be released on September 1 at 6 p.m. through various online music platforms.
