Dokyeom and Seungkwan, the main vocalists of the group Seventeen, will take the stage at the Seoul Jazz Festival for the first time since their debut. Pledis Entertainment, a label under HYBE Music Group, announced that the two will perform at the 18th Seoul Jazz Festival 2026, held from May 22 to 24 around Olympic Park in Songpa-gu, Seoul.

The Seoul Jazz Festival, which began in 2007, is Korea's representative music festival featuring artists from various genres centered around jazz each year. Drawing tens of thousands of spectators, Dokyeom and Seungkwan are expected to showcase their talents as live performers on this stage.

Before their appearance at the Seoul Jazz Festival, Dokyeom and Seungkwan will hold a solo concert titled "DxS [Soya-gok] ON STAGE - INCHEON" from April 17 to 19 at Inspire Arena in Incheon. This concert will vividly bring to life the emotional storytelling of their mini-album 1st release "Soya-gok," which came out in January. Following this, they will continue their tour to locations including Chiba, Daegu, Macau, and Kaohsiung.

The title track "Blue" from "Soya-gok" topped major domestic and international charts, establishing them as a genuine K-pop vocal duo. The song reached number one on Korea's YouTube trending music chart and also topped the daily viral song charts on Spotify in Japan, Malaysia, and Indonesia. This is an exceptional achievement for a traditional ballad.

Their outstanding vocal skills are also evident in various content. Dokyeom and Seungkwan have proven their reputation as main vocalists by delivering flawless live performances on YouTube channels such as "Dingo Music"'s "Esl Live 2" and "1theK Live"'s "Record Delivery."

They will also appear on JTBC's "Begin Again Open Mic," airing on the 2nd of next month, where they will take on a library busking challenge. This program features various artists showcasing their music through busking, drawing fans' attention and anticipation for new sides of Dokyeom and Seungkwan.

Dokyeom and Seungkwan's activities are expected to further expand their influence in the K-pop market. They plan to continue active engagements on various stages and strengthen communication with their fans.
