This year, the announcement of the end of the event has shocked various sectors, and as the strongest rookie gateway of K-POP, the '16th KMF 2024' is approaching next weekend, the last official poster of KMF has been released, raising expectations. The official poster of 'KMF2024' lists six notable groups of the fifth generation of K-POP, including NiziU, NCT WISH, n.SSign, xikers, KISS OF LIFE, and ALL(H)OURS, shining within a glowing prism. Additionally, the first-ever Japanese boy group ONE N' ONLY, ICEx, and special MC Kai from Super Junior are featured, creating a luxurious lineup. The cute characters designed by current artist Hidekazu Tamura symbolize this year's KMF and evoke the refreshing passion and bright energy of the 'youth stars' of Final KMF, further heightening excitement. The omnibus performance 'KMF' has played a showcase role in introducing K-POP from its dawn to the latest next-generation stars in Japan, broadening future opportunities for activities in Japan. One of the joys of the omnibus performance is enjoying the new songs and popular tracks of the participating artists all at once, and discovering the charm of artists previously unknown, which is the essence of 'KMF'. At Final KMF, you can still hear many new songs from each artist, along with special MCs and special collaboration stages that can only be seen here, creating a thrilling stage filled with various highlights. A special collaboration stage featuring both K-POP and J-POP artists performing a single song will be one of the highlights of Final KMF, drawing significant interest from fans. Attention is focused on this legendary stage, which can be called a historic moment. Furthermore, at 'KMF', the GFSC (Good Friends Save the Children) Charity Campaign has been developed each time to spread the positive influence of K-POP. At Final KMF, with the warm cooperation of the participating artists and their agencies, various events will take place, including the KMF2024 official ceremony (blue carpet & press conference), a special meet & greet with GFSC special ambassadors KISS OF LIFE and ALL(H)OURS, an air high-touch event after the second performance (participating artists will be announced on the day), and a venue-limited GFSC Charity Campaign - Meet & Greet lottery for special digital images of KMF2024 that can be viewed later. While sharing warmth that connects children's dreams and hopes through music, the thrilling excitement of being close to your favorite artists is abundant in this once-in-a-lifetime GFSC Charity Campaign - Meet & Greet. As the mood of Japan-Korea friendship through music rises ahead of next year's 60th anniversary of Japan-Korea diplomatic normalization, the Final KMF will beautifully conclude with a Japan-Korea friendship music festival featuring multinational artists. The countdown to the last event at Yokohama Arena on October 6 (Sunday) has finally begun. ■ Performance Overview '~ GFSC Charity Campaign ~ NPO Japan-Korea Cultural Exchange Association 20th Anniversary 16th KMF 2024' [Venue & Date] October 6, 2024 (Sunday) Yokohama Arena <Part 1> Doors open 13:00 / Starts 14:00 <Part 2> Doors open 18:00 / Starts 19:00 [Performers] <Part 1> NiziU / NCT WISH / n.SSign / xikers / KISS OF LIFE / ALL(H)OURS Special appearance: ONE N' ONLY Special MC: Kai (Super Junior) / RIKU & RYO (NCT WISH) / NATTY & HANEUL (KISS OF LIFE) <Part 2> NiziU / NCT WISH / n.SSign / xikers / KISS OF LIFE / ALL(H)OURS Special appearance: ONE N' ONLY / ICEx *ICEx will only perform in Part 2.
