Fandom announced today that K-pop sensation NCT DOJAEJUNG will be the musical headliner of their annual SDCC Fandom Party, taking place at Float at the Hard Rock. Their appearance also coincides with the forthcoming release of the groups Z2 Graphic Nobel titled Limitless.

The group composed of DOYOUNG, JAEHYUN, and JUNGWOO is the new unit of the South Korean boy band NCT, represented by SM Entertainment. Since their official debut with their first EP Perfume in April 2023, NCT DOJAEJUNG has quickly become a commercial and critical success. Lucky fans will catch their enthralling K-pop and R&B tracks as they make their first-ever U.S. performance during the convention week at the Fandom event.

As announced last March, Z2 Comics and NCT 127 – which also features members DOYOUNG, JAEHYUN, and JUNGWOO – have teamed up alongside Universal Music Group and its Korean label SM Entertainment for “NCT 127: Limitless,” an original graphic novel from the act to mark the first officially licensed K-pop print comic. With its title taken from the group’s 2017 single of the same, “Limitless” is both a hardcover and deluxe hardcover manhwa (a general term from South Korea for comic books and graphic novels with a distinct, detailed artistic style) to share a multiverse-hopping, reality-blurring tale of NCT 127 rehearsing for a sold-out stadium show in New York City.

The Fandom Party, presented by Paramount+ and Electronic Arts (EA), is one of the hottest tickets in town for San Diego Comic-Con.
