LNGSHOT and ALPHA DRIVE ONE Share New Artist Win at 2026 Melon Music Awards
At the 2026 Melon Music Awards on November 15, rising K-pop groups LNGSHOT and ALPHA DRIVE ONE both won New Artist of the Year, a rare shared honor highlighting their breakout year. LNGSHOT wowed with a high-energy medley of “Saucin’,” “Backseat,” “Moonwalkin’,” and “Bananas,” while both acts shone in digital charts and fan support amid big wins for BTS, IVE, and CORTIS. They shared heartfelt thanks to fans—ALLYZ for ALPHA DRIVE ONE—and teams, with members showing raw emotion after less than a year in the spotlight.
