Sony Music's Global Artist Development Initiative 'TORA PROJECT' to Hold 3rd SHOWCASE

The 3rd showcase by the affiliated trainees of the global artist development institution "TORA PROJECT," launched by Sony Music Entertainment, will be held on June 27, 2026.

Previous two SHOWCASES both sold out instantly, garnering significant attention and anticipation for the pre-debut trainees.

This third event will be the first to hold two performances, one during the day and one in the evening.

This SHOWCASE will feature performances by solo artists and various unit formations, as well as original song reveals, delivering precious moments that can "only be seen now" as they are pre-debut.

Furthermore, "Besotted," a three-member male group that launched last July and performed at "Are They Coming!? Summer Sonic!?" in 2025, will be performing. Additionally, dance artist "GANMI" has also been confirmed as a guest performer.

The performances by the young talents honed through TORA PROJECT's training program are a must-see.
