82MAJOR's "Sign" lands at #9 on Billboard's 2026 Best K-pop Songs list as group kicks off first fan concert

Sign, the title track from 82MAJOR's fifth mini-album Film, ranked #9 on Billboard's "25 Best K-pop Songs of 2026" list published July 16.

The placement came as the group opened their first fan concert, 2026 82MAJOR FAN-CONCERT 82 Office : Vacation, at Seoul Excalibur on July 18–19. The two-day event was built around a summer vacation concept, with members Nam Seong-mo, Park Seok-jun, Yoon Ye-chan, Jo Seong-il, Hwang Seong-bin, and Kim Do-gyun performing as office workers escaping their daily routines. The program included signature song stages and corners designed to show member chemistry, followed by a hi-bye event where members greeted their fanclub, Attitude, face to face.

Film had already put up numbers before the concert run. The six-member group, which debuted in 2023 and writes and composes as a full unit, recorded their highest first-week sales with the album. It hit #1 on iTunes charts in Spain and Vietnam, entered the upper tier of China's Wanyi Music chart, and saw tracks reverse-chart on France iTunes. Sign also landed on domestic music charts in Korea.

The awards column filled out too: a "Potential Overseas Group of the Year" win at the Weibo International Entertainment Awards and an "Asia Rising Group Award" at Asia Culture Festival 2026.

The Seoul dates are already sold out, and so is the August 2 show at Macau Broadway Theatre. (The group completed their first North America tour last year and is currently running a Europe tour plus stops in Hong Kong, Thailand, and Japan in 2026.)
