2026 The Fact Music Awards revealed its third lineup on July 28, confirming that RIIZE, ILLIT, NMIXX, Lim Young Woong, and TREASURE will perform at the September 19 event at Busan Asiad Main Stadium.
RIIZE returns to TMA after previously debuting on the show’s stage. Their second mini-album ‘II’ became their fourth million-seller, and the title track “Do your dance” topped music charts in South Korea and overseas.
ILLIT will make their TMA debut. Their fourth mini-album ‘MAMIHLAPINATAPAI’ features the title song “It’s Me,” which topped domestic digital charts and music shows, while the album reached a new peak on the US Billboard 200.
NMIXX comes back to TMA after performing there last year. They have kept up momentum with the success of their first full album and their fifth mini-album ‘Heavy Serenade’, and their music videos have continued to draw an international audience.
Lim Young Woong returns to TMA following a three-year break. His second full album ‘IM HERO 2’ swept music charts, he surpassed 1.4 billion cumulative streams on Melon, and his upcoming stadium concert in September has sold out all dates.
TREASURE rounds out the announced acts. Their fourth mini-album ‘NEW WAV’ became a second consecutive million-seller in initial sales, and the title track “IF I” topped major Japanese digital charts.
