[instiz] TXT’S YEONJUN BECOMES THE 2ND KOREAN MALE SOLO, FOLLOWING JUNGKOOK, TO BE INVITED TO GLOBAL CITIZEN
Yeonjun of TOMORROW X TOGETHER will perform both as a group and as a solo artist at the ‘2026 Global Citizen Festival.’ Following BTS’s Jungkook, he becomes the second male solo artist from Korea to be invited to the event, continuing his activities on the US stage.
Yeonjun has joined the lineup announced on the 10th (local time) by the international advocacy organization Global Citizen. Following the earlier confirmation of TOMORROW X TOGETHER’s appearance, making them the only Korean act this year, Yeonjun is now set to deliver a solo performance as well. He becomes the second male Korean solo artist to participate, following Jungkook in 2023.
The event will take place on the 26th at Central Park in New York City and will be livestreamed globally via YouTube. Yeonjun is preparing both a solo performance and a stage appearance as a member of TOMORROW X TOGETHER.

This year’s lineup features John Legend, Lenny Kravitz, Ms. Hill and Wyclef Jean, Lainey Wilson, Shaboozey, Victoria Monét, and Yoshiki, among others.
Since the recent release of his second mini-album, *NO LABELS: PART 02*, Yeonjun has been expanding the scope of his solo career through various US broadcast appearances and live performances. He became the second K-pop solo artist, following Jungkook, to perform on Good Morning America’s “Summer Concert Series” and was the first Korean artist to take the stage at the “Z100 Summer Bash Presented by Wells Fargo.”
He also headlined the “Billboard: One Night Only” event, performing at the Troubadour, an intimate venue in Los Angeles. Additionally, he connected with sports fans at the LA Dodgers’ home stadium by performing and throwing the ceremonial first pitch during “Korean Heritage Night.” At this charity festival, he will continue to engage with local audiences by showcasing both his group and solo work.

1. It looks like they’re trying to spin a narrative by booking solo schedules as similar as possible to the ones Jungkook did, so to position him as the “next in line” after Jungkook
2. Yeonjun is already doing a great job, so I wish people would stop with that kind of thing. Even the fans don’t stress over stuff like that. Fighting Yeonjun
3. They keep mentioning that other artist, don’t they realize that’s rude to both parties?
4. Is Jungkook planning to leave the company? ㅋㅋ they’re always trying to give Yeonjun the same schedules as Jungkook and trying to mediaplay using Jungkook’s image ㅋㅋ
5. This is so bad for Yeonjun too… HYBE are so r*tarded trying to make him follow Jungkook’s steps all the time
6. No but why are they always bringing Jungkook in his articles? I don’t get it ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Cut it down seriously
7. Leave Jungkook out of this
8. But is this guy even a vocal member? I thought he was more of a rapper? His style is so different too. So why are they always comparing the two?
9. So is Yeonjun performing in Time Square next?
10. Can they stop mediaplaying him with Jungkook all the time? This is doing damage on both side. I seriously hate HYBE
