K-POP New Releases [April 2025]

POPS writer/editorKEI
Since discovering music during my school days, I’ve mainly listened to Japanese and Korean pop. I have experience writing articles for sites like Utaten. 2000s J-pop and 2010s K-pop were especially the soundtrack of my youth. With the mindset that “good is good,” I enjoy music across genres. Thanks to past work environments and their influence, I was exposed to lots of classic rock and kayōkyoku (Japanese popular songs), which may have broadened the scope of what I love. At RAG MUSIC, I currently focus on K-pop and J-pop. I strive to edit with a feel for the scene and an eye for hit potential.

In April 2025, South Korea’s music scene is poised to evolve even further.

A new generation of artists is opening up fresh horizons in music with refined melodies and innovative sounds.

A slew of must-watch new tracks will make the global music landscape even more exciting.

Through this article, why not experience the cutting edge of Korea’s music scene together?

The Small Spring (작은 봄)고추잠자리

Korean indie group Gochu Jamjari, known for their acoustic sound and poetic lyrics, has drawn attention with this gentle mid-tempo ballad from their album “작은 봄,” released in April 2025.

Its delicate imagery beautifully layers scenes of nature awakening after the snowmelt with emotions shifting from winter to spring.

Released on SoundCloud ahead of the album on March 30, the track has already garnered high praise from Korea’s indie scene.

The harmony and arrangement—where each member’s musicality blends seamlessly—are outstanding.

It’s a piece that keeps you company on a quiet spring morning or whenever you want to calm your mind.
