ENHYPEN takes DARK MOON vampires to SDCC with Twilight cast
ENHYPEN joins SDCC 2026 on July 23 for a DARK MOON vampire panel with Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke and cast members.
Panel Talk Featuring 'Twilight' Director and Cast
The group ENHYPEN is set to showcase their 'vampire' universe at the heart of North American pop culture. ENHYPEN will attend 'San Diego Comic-Con 2026 (SDCC 2026),' held at the San Diego Convention Center in the United States from the 23rd to the 26th.
The core of this event is the 'vampire' code that runs through ENHYPEN and HYBE's original story IP, 'DARK MOON.' On the 23rd, a panel talk titled 'Bite Me: Calling All Vampires,' named after ENHYPEN's song 'Bite Me,' will take place.
Notably, director Catherine Hardwicke of the film 'Twilight' is joining the event, drawing significant attention. Actors Peter Facinelli and Ashley Greene, who appeared in the film 'Twilight,' will also be in attendance. They are scheduled to discuss methods of portraying vampire characters. The panel talk will be hosted by critic Damian Holbrook.
Following World Tour, 'DARK MOON' Solo Booth and Performance to be Held
Prior to the official Comic-Con schedule, ENHYPEN will perform their world tour 'ENHYPEN WORLD TOUR 'BLOOD SAGA' IN SAN DIEGO' at the Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego on the 21st.
Following the tour, ENHYPEN will operate a dedicated 'DARK MOON' solo booth (No. 4129) for two days from the 23rd to the 24th. On the 24th, 'DARK MOON BLOOD NIGHT with ENHYPEN' will be held at the House of Blues near the event venue. With American DJ Jojo Wright serving as MC, this event will feature both performances and talk sessions, with a 'vampire' dress code.
'DARK MOON' is a story IP planned by HYBE that connects to ENHYPEN's musical concept, leading to 'DARK MOON: Altar of the Moon,' 'DARK MOON: Two Moons,' and 'Children of Nightfield by DARK MOON.' 'DARK MOON: Altar of the Moon' has expanded beyond webtoons and web novels into an animation, gaining global popularity through translations into 10 languages.
Bak Tae Ho, Business Representative of HYBE Next Entertainment Business Division, stated, "'DARK MOON' is an IP maturing in the global market, having surpassed 200 million cumulative views for its webtoon and having its animation broadcast in over 80 regions worldwide. It will serve as a platform at SDCC to engage in various discourses with genre-representative creators and artists."
