TXT, aespa, ENHYPEN, IVE and RIIZE Lead the Second Lineup of DICON's 'D'FESTA THE ORIGIN' Editions
DICON has revealed TXT, aespa, ENHYPEN, IVE and RIIZE as the second lineup of its 'D'FESTA THE ORIGIN' photobook editions, with pre-orders open through Nov. 22 and an official release on Jan. 22, 2027.
Five of K-pop's biggest current acts are getting the DICON treatment. TXT, aespa, ENHYPEN, IVE and RIIZE make up the second lineup of DICON's 'D'FESTA THE ORIGIN' edition, a project celebrating Dispatch's 15th anniversary that records the 48-artist 'D'FESTA THE ORIGIN' exhibition in pictorial form.
Each group shot its own concept, according to the reports: TXT under blue light and fog as if waiting for sunrise, aespa layering new colors over their debut identity, ENHYPEN as six colors forming one spectrum, IVE as a painting-like study of confident elegance, and RIIZE as a small spark growing into a flame. Interviews with Yeonjun, Giselle, Jay, An Yu-jin and Sohee accompany the photos.
Every edition comes with individual member covers, a 240-page magazine, five holographic mini postcards carrying handwritten messages, three selfie photocards and a folded monochrome photo with six black-and-white portraits. Pre-orders opened Nov. 11 at 2 p.m. KST and close Nov. 22 at 11:59 p.m., ahead of the official release on Jan. 22, 2027.
