A2O LITE won its fourth music show trophy for debut single "NEON" on the October 25 episode of SBS's Inkigayo, finishing with 6,060 points.

Soompi reports that the group came out on top of a three-way race for first place against NCT WISH's "I SPY" and i-dle's Soyeon's "I'm gonna TOESA." The win and the encore stage after it aired on episode 1329.

One of the runners-up also performed that day: NCT WISH took the stage with "I SPY." The rest of the top of the bill was stacked. IVE performed "Looks Can Kill," BABYMONSTER brought "DESERVE" and NMIXX did "Birthday Wish."

Several performers came with a famous group's name attached. SEVENTEEN's JxJ performed "12 o'clock," ZEROBASEONE's Sung Han Bin did "UNDEAD" and TVXQ's Changmin sang "All Of My Life." INFINITE's Nam Woo Hyun performed "DEVIL," and AB6IX's Park Woo Jin closed out that group with "STAMINA."

Kim Jae Hwan sang "Call It Love." MEOVV performed "GO HARD," ALLDAY PROJECT did "CRASH" and A2O SOUL, the second act on the bill with an A2O name, performed "SUPERSTAR."

The band and boy group slots were full too: Xdinary Heroes played "Obsessed with Youth," KickFlip performed "Kick Off The Wall" and EVNNE did "LOOK AT MA."

The lineup ran deep into newer names as well, with CUTIE STREET, CATCH THE YOUNG, FLARE U, DAILY:DIRECTION, YUHZ, V01D and RŌSIEN all appearing on the episode that gave "NEON" its fourth win.
