The beloved K-pop group BTS turned 12 on June 13 this year, with a surprise reunion that warmed the hearts of fans. Despite not being at an official debut anniversary event, all members of BTS came together to celebrate with their fans, ARMY, after almost three years. A lot has changed on the personal front for the group members, but their bond has continued to remain strong, unwavered by time.

If you’ve somehow made it this far into the 5th gen K-pop wave without crossing paths with 82MAJOR, now’s the time to pay attention. Since debuting in 2023, this six-member group has been building steady momentum by balancing synchronized, high-impact performances with a sound that refuses to be boxed in a specific category. Now with their third mini album SILENCE SYNDROME, which was released April 14, they’re stepping into a new chapter.

Multinational girl group X:IN has made a much-awaited comeback with its third mini album, Defend Myself. The album is also the group’s first under its new agency BeBy Entertainment. This album captures the intricacies of X:IN’s personal experiences as the members deal with vulnerabilities and challenges of being in the spotlight. Defend Myself was released digitally on May 17, 2025.

BTS Jin is back with another emotional surprise for fans. The “Super Tuna” singer has prepared an auditory treat for ARMYs with his latest album Echo on May 16, 2025. The album contains seven tracks (we like the hidden symbolism here) including the title track “Don’t Say You Love Me.” A music video for the title featuring actress Shin Se-kyung was also released along with the album.

K-pop group TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT) has been quiet for most of this year, except for a few concert performances and festival appearances. The quintet—Yeonjun, Soobin, Beomgyu, Taehyun, and HueningKai—took a much-needed break from activities to focus on their personal lives and health. The group finally made a comeback with a digital single, “Love Language,” turning a new page in their discography. The song was released on May 2, 2025.

Just eight months after their previous comeback, K-pop group P1Harmony returned to a dazzling stage with their explosive 8th mini-album DUH! on May 8. 

Latin GRAMMY Award-winning and Puerto Rican Latin music artist Rauw Alejandro has surprisingly unveiled a stripped-down version of his latest hit single, “Carita Linda.” Dropping just weeks after its original release, this new version of the song offers a raw, unfiltered dive into the track.

A new girl group, HITGS, is in! This South Korean five-member girl group under H Music Entertainment has officially made their highly anticipated debut on April 28 with The 1st Single [Things we love : H], and let’s just say, they’re not here to play—they’re here to slay.

Week two of Coachella was nothing short of ecstatic for the seven-member K-pop powerhouse ENHYPEN, who concluded their historic Coachella debut on April 21 with a preview of their upcoming album DESIRE : UNLEASH set to be released on June 5, 2025—a remarkable feat for a K-pop group merely five years into their debut. DESIRE : UNLEASH will make it their sixth mini-album, following the release of their repackaged album ROMANCE: UNTOLD -daydream- last November.
