ENHYPEN's 2-Year Daesang Secret Revealed

Group ENHYPEN received two grand prizes, 'Artist of the Year' and 'Album of the Year,' at the '3rd Asia Star Entertainer Awards 2026' (ASEA 2026), marking their second consecutive year winning grand prizes. They also took home the 'The Platinum' trophy, equivalent to a 본상 (main award), making it a triple win. ENHYPEN won 'Album of the Year' at last year's 'ASEA 2025,' and this year, they not only received the best album award but also the grand prize for the artist who showed the most dazzling performance throughout the year, further solidifying their position as 'Global Top Tier.'

The ENHYPEN members expressed their joy and gratitude for winning grand prizes for two consecutive years. Jay stated, "This award makes me feel even more passionate about the activities we will show in the future." Jake commented, "I see this as a gift for working hard throughout 2025, and I want to dedicate the honor of this grand prize to our fandom, ENGENE."

After declaring their ambition to continue proving themselves following last year's 'ALBUM OF THE YEAR' award, ENHYPEN has demonstrated their continued strength by achieving a total of six grand prize wins this year, becoming a double million-seller for the fourth time in their career, and topping Japan's Oricon and Line Music charts. Sunghoon said, "The love from ENGENE, who always supports us, is our greatest driving force," adding, "This is the result of the combined efforts of our staff who help us behind the scenes." Ni-ki emphasized, "It's all thanks to ENGENE that ENHYPEN can continue to perform and grow," stating, "All our achievements were made by ENGENE."

Over the past five years, ENHYPEN has expanded their spectrum by presenting new music, performances, and concepts without being confined to a specific genre, and they plan to continue taking on new challenges. Jungwon expressed, "I want to be on stage for a long time under the name ENHYPEN," mentioning that there are still countless songs and concepts that can showcase ENHYPEN's new charms. Sunoo also stated, "There is still much I want to achieve as ENHYPEN, and I want to try experiences we haven't had before."

The members also shared their thoughts on the recently concluded world tour 'BLOOD SAGA' Seoul concert. Jungwon said, "I have high expectations for this tour as we will be going to South America for the first time," vowing, "It doesn't feel like we're in our seventh year, and we will continue to seek new inspiration and show our best without becoming complacent." Jay revealed, "This tour is the largest in ENHYPEN's history, and since we are visiting new continents and cities for the first time, our resolve is different." Sunoo expressed excitement for future tour dates, building on the positive reception of the Seoul concert, and conveyed his eagerness to meet ENGENE in South America.
