An array of K-pop acts will wrap up this year’s Boryeong Mud Festival, which comes to an end on Aug. 15.  
 
The lineup includes rookie boy band Blitzers which recently dropped its third EP “Win-dow” as well as singer AleXa, who gained international popularity after winning first place in NBC’s “American Song Contest” in May. 
 
AleXa, whose real name is Alexandra Christine Schneiderman, is a Korean-American singer. She debuted in 2019 after appearing on the audition program "Rising Legends" in 2016 and on Mnet's "Produce 48" in 2018. 
 
Boy band BTOB, well-known for hit songs like “Way Back Home” (2015), “Remember That” (2016) and “Missing You” (2017) will also perform.  
 
Ballad singers are also included in the lineup, such as veteran duo Yurisangja. Boy band 2AM member Lee Chang-min will also take to the stage. 2AM made a dramatic comeback last year by dropping an EP “Ballad 21 F/W,” which was its first release in seven years since the band’s last album “Let’s Talk.” 
 
Male duo Norazo will also stage an eccentric performance. 
 
Boryeong Mud Festival, which has not been held since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic, kicked off at Daecheon Beach in Boryeong, South Chungcheong, on July 16.
