Wrapping up the New Year's Eve Livestream will be Peggy Gou, whose successful single '(It Goes Like) Nanana' saw acclaim this summer. Gou emphasized the importance of connecting with the crowd and tuning into their energy during her performances. She also announced her upcoming album release slated for 2024.
