ENHYPEN and Jennie to Deliver Iconic K-pop Performances at 2025 Coachella

The 2025 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival taking place in Palm Springs, California, is drawing attention to the performances of two artists who represent K-pop. BLACKPINK members Jennie and Lisa, along with boy group ENHYPEN, will take the stage to further elevate K-pop’s global presence. ENHYPEN is a seven-member boy band formed in 2020 through the K-pop survival show I-LAND, consisting of Jungwon, Heeseung, Jay, Jake, Sunghoon, Jungwon, and Ni-ki. They made their Coachella debut on April 12 at the Sahara Stage. ENHYPEN set a record by becoming the fastest K-pop boy band to appear at Coachella, doing so just five years after their 2020 debut. ENHYPEN’s Coachella setlist included 13 songs: “Blockbuster,” “Blessed-Cursed,” “Future Perfect (Pass the Mic),” “Paradox Invasion,” “Paranormal,” “XO (Only If You Say Yes),” “No Doubt,” “Sweet Venom,” “Daydream,” “Moonstructure,” “Bite Me,” “Drunk-Dazed,” and “Bring the Heat Back.” The performance took place at the same Sahara Stage where Lisa performed the previous day, and despite relatively empty seats, fans known as ENGEN responded with enthusiastic energy. ENHYPEN has also been expanding their presence on American TV stages recently. On April 10, they appeared on the American late-night talk show “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” and performed their entirely English song “Loose,” solidifying their position in the U.S. music market. Their 2023 album “Dark Blood” achieved over 100 million streams on Spotify, proving its global popularity, and the title tracks from albums “Orange Blood” and “Romance: Untold” have also gained worldwide acclaim. In particular, “Romance: Untold” sold 1.88 million copies in just one day. Jennie is scheduled to perform as a solo artist at Coachella on the 13th and 20th. She has recently dominated domestic and international charts with the title track “like JENNIE” from her first solo full-length album “Ruby.” She even reached number one on MBC’s “Show! Music Core” without appearing on the show, allowing “like JENNIE” to claim five music show awards. It secured first place for three consecutive weeks on “M Countdown” and also took first place on “Show! Champion” and “Show! Music Core.” “like JENNIE” was written and composed by Jennie herself, conveying a message of shining brightly while maintaining one’s individuality and confidently pursuing one’s own path. It quickly surpassed 100 million streams on Spotify, the world’s largest music streaming platform, and made it into the top 10 of global weekly charts. Jennie’s Coachella performance is expected to serve as a major milestone in expanding her global activities.
