For the unversed, Mnetâs âKingdomâ will follow the pattern of its previous show âQueendomâ where K-pop groups will compete with each other in various rounds, produce songs and release them together to see which one does better in charts. Along with that, the groupâs latest comeback will also reportedly play a crucial part in it. For the 2021 edition of Kingdom, SM Entertainmentâs pop duo TVXQ Changmin and Yunho will be seen as the MCs of the event.
