SBS introduces Gayo Daejeon Summer with familiar hosts

The Gayo Daejeon Summer is a new addition to SBS’s large-scale music shows, typically held at the end of the year. This is the first time the year-end music program will also be celebrated in the summer. Notably, all three idols have previously served as MCs for the weekly music program “Inkigayo” on SBS.

An Yujin will host Gayo Daejeon for the third consecutive year, having served as MC in 2022 and 2023. Yeonjun, who co-hosted last year’s Gayo Daejeon alongside An Yujin, returns to showcase his hosting skills again. With the addition of NCT’s Doyoung, fans are eager to see the chemistry between these former “Inkigayo” hosts.

As the first MCs of this summer event, Doyoung, An Yujin, and Yeonjun will bring their energy and charisma to the event while introducing performances from popular K-pop artists who have made a significant impact in the first half of 2024.

The production team of this event is working diligently to prepare a spectacular summer K-pop festival. In addition to special performances by artists who have shone brightly in the first half of the year, there will be refreshing performances suited for the summer, setting Gayo Daejeon Summer apart from its year-end counterpart.

The lineup for performances includes TXT, IVE, Stray Kids, (G)I-DLE, NewJeans, STAYC, ENHYPEN, LE SSERAFIM, NMIXX, ZEROBASEONE, and Lee Young Ji. Fans can look forward to more updates as the event approaches.
