An exhibition capturing the diverse images of 28 K-pop artists began on the 23rd.

'D'FESTA THE ORIGIN' is being held at the MPX Gallery L3 in IFC Mall, Yeouido, Seoul, from the 23rd until November 30.

This large-scale project involves 48 artists from nine teams, including G-DRAGON, BTS, Stray Kids, TOMORROW X TOGETHER, aespa, ENHYPEN, IVE, RIIZE, and CORTIS.

The exhibition showcases the results of approximately four months of filming, during which more than 30 large-scale shooting sets were produced.

Included in the exhibition are 'THE NINEFOLD', which unfolds the personalities of the nine teams into 18 stories; 'HUES OF BLACK', a black-and-white portrait measuring 8m wide by 4m high; and 'KANON NO. 48', completed by the 48 artists.

Additionally, 'THE SQUEEZE' introduces drawings created by the members themselves, and 'LETTERS' features handwritten letters and video messages for fans.

"'D'FESTA THE ORIGIN' was prepared with great care over a long period to present the brightest moments of K-pop in a new artistic format," D'FESTA stated, adding, "In particular, 'KANON NO. 48' will be a valuable scene that captures K-pop on an overwhelming scale."

The exhibition is scheduled to be held sequentially in major cities around the world, starting with Tokyo in January next year.
