Now the group marks their first-ever promotional activities in North America by connecting with their fandom KEYPER through a polaroid event at hello82 and hosting their 1st “FANNECT” fan meet before taking on KCON LA 2026. The group appeared on the Toyota Music Den stage performing  tracks like “BEST ONE,” “KEYVITUP,” and “LEGENDARY.” They also showcased a special dance cover of ATEEZ’s “Adrenaline.”

KEYVITUP defines their stages to showcase their ambitions and high-energy concepts, while creating connections with everyone who attended, making them artists to watch. They received high praise from KCONers, allowing them to reach a whole new audience. KpopWise caught up with the group to talk about what it meant to be at this year's KCON and connect with fans.

KpopWise: What are you most excited to experience while you’re here at KCON?

HYUNMIN: Of course, first, I think the biggest thing is sharing the energy with many fans on the KCON LA stage. Hmm, I think that’s correct! 

KW: For people seeing Keyvitup for the first time, what do you want them to think when they see you? 

TAEHWAN: Actually, it hasn’t been long since our debut, but we ended up coming all the way to LA for KCON, coming together like this. We are confident in our true skills, and we believe this is a great opportunity to prove ourselves to the public. We would be really grateful if you could see how much we enjoy the stage and how sincere we are about it. 

KW: Do you have any messages for KEYPER?

TAEHWAN: Yes, KEYPERs, we really put our heart and soul into preparing for this stage, so please make sure to watch closely. And please keep cheering for us; I love you guys! 

Currently, KEYVITUP is hard at work preparing a new album for a November comeback, aiming to solidify their presence with music and performances that offer a fresh take compared to their debut.
