“D AWARDS 2027 in PARIS” unveiled its 5th artist line-up including JONGHO of ATEEZ, WAYV, and XIKERS.

The 5th artist line-up of “D AWARDS 2027 in PARIS”, which will be held on January 15 and 16, 2027, at the Plenitude Arena (formerly Paris La Défense Arena) in Paris, France, includes JONGHO of ATEEZ, TEN and XIAOJUN of WAYV, as well as XIKERS.
In particular, JONGHO is embarking on hosting an awards ceremony for the first time since his debut. ATEEZ‘s main vocalist, JONGHO, will take the stage on the first day, January 15, as host and solo performer. He also plans to present a special stage prepared for the “D AWARDS”.
WAYV, who had joined the 4th line-up previously, will take the Paris stage as a full 5-member group with the confirmation of TEN‘s participation. This is a full-group stage presented after the release of their 8th mini-album “VISION WINGS” last August.
Solo stages by TEN and XIAOJUN will also be prepared. As TEN released the single “OUTWEST” last September and XIAOJUN the mini-album “HEY, SOMEBODY” in October, they plan to show different stages by navigating between group and solo work.
XIKERS also joined the 5th artist line-up. XIKERS released their 8th mini-album “ROUTE ZERO: THE CALLING” on the 2nd and launched into their activities.
XIKERS, who debuted in 2023, entered the U.S. Billboard’s main album chart “Billboard 200” just 12 days after their debut. Through these “D AWARDS”, the group will also meet European fans.
Previously, the “D AWARDS” had announced JIHYO of TWICE as host and performer. In parallel, TOMORROW X TOGETHER, YEONJUN, DPR IAN, WAYV, P1HARMONY, YENA, KISS OF LIFE, AMPERS&ONE, RESCENE, KICKFLIP, KIIIKIII, IDID, ALPHA DRIVE ONE, LNGSHOT, AND2BLE, EVAN, and A2O LIGHT inscribed their names in the artist line-up.
Celebrating its 3rd edition, the “D AWARDS” will be held on January 15 and 16, 2027, at the Plenitude Arena in Paris, France. The event is co-organized by Sports Dong-A and WSM, co-managed by WSM and Story Peak Global, and the host broadcasting channel in Korea is Channel A.
