Neowiz announced on the 12th that pre-orders for DJMAX RESPECT V's first official artbook surpassed 1,000 copies within 30 minutes of going on sale. The offline concert "MIRACLE 10.10" also concluded successfully with a 1,500-seat capacity.
According to Neowiz, pre-orders for the artbook opened on September 30, and despite being an exclusive domestic pre-order, overseas orders accounted for approximately 10% of the total. Immediately after sales began, it topped both YES24's real-time bestsellers list and the overall Arts/Popular Culture category bestsellers list. As of 11:10 AM on the same day, "디제이맥스" and "DJMAX" ranked 1st and 2nd in YES24's overall real-time search terms.
The concert took place on the 10th at the YES24 Live Hall in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul. All 1,500 seats sold out within five minutes of ticket sales opening, and about 40 artists, including M2U and surprise guests, took the stage. A mini fan meet-up featuring 10 artist teams was also held at the venue to connect with fans.
7 Sequence, who has worked as a DJMAX pattern designer and composer, made his debut as a DJ through this concert. He delivered a B2B performance alongside Game Director Jung-hyun Wang (XeoN), while other series composers including VoidRover, Mr.Funky x NWT, and Pure 100% also performed.
The finale stage was led by Seung-chul Baek (BEXTER), Executive Producer at DJMAX's Rocky Studio. As Producer Baek performed the series' iconic track "glory day" with a full live band, the audience sang along.
A game-related reveal was also made. The arcade version of DJMAX RESPECT V—the first arcade release for the franchise since DJMAX Technika—was unveiled for the first time at the venue.
A Neowiz representative stated, "It is deeply meaningful to connect with fans who love 'DJMAX' in various ways through our first official artbook and offline concert." They added, "We will continue to expand our touchpoints with fans through diverse online and offline activities using music, artwork, and other rich content, while consistently delivering new experiences unique to the 'DJMAX' IP."
