K-POP New Song Release [December 2025]

LOOK AT MEALLDAY PROJECT

ALLDAY PROJECT – ‘LOOK AT ME’ M/V

A new co-ed group bringing a fresh breeze from THE BLACK LABEL, led by TEDDY, has officially kicked off.

ALLDAY PROJECT is a project-based unit consisting of five members—men and women—an unusual lineup for the K-pop mainstream that’s drawing attention.

The group’s defining trait is how each member brings a distinct strength: Woochan, who made his mark as a rapper on Show Me the Money 6; Yeonso, known from the survival show R U Next?; and Bailey, an internationally active dancer, among others.

This track serves as a centerpiece of their 1st EP, ALLDAY PROJECT, released in December 2025.

Its structure stands out with a tight beat and repeated phrases that drive home a provocative message—“look at me, don’t take your eyes off me.” Watching it alongside the performance video highlights the choreography’s synergy even more.

Highly recommended for anyone seeking a new form of K-pop.

It’s That Time of YearCHUNGHA

CHUNG HA 청하 | ‘It’s That Time of Year’ Special Clip Video

Charismatic solo artist Chungha has released a holiday-themed four-track special single, “Christmas Promises: Again,” in December 2025.

One of the included tracks, “It’s That Time of Year,” is a pop-tinged song that captures the exhilaration of the year’s end, the joy of reuniting with loved ones, and the warmth of cherished memories.

Sprinkled with sleigh bells and soothing guitar strums, it radiates a sparkle reminiscent of city holiday lights.

Although she’s known for dance-pop, this release softens the sharp edge of the beats to balance festivity with intimacy.

With lyrics in English, it’s a holiday song that can be enjoyed across borders.

Perfect as background music for Christmas parties or a companion for winter drives—highly recommended for anyone looking to brighten those special year-end moments.

Love Virus (Feat. I.M)Heize

헤이즈(Heize) – ‘Love Virus (Feat. I.M)’ MV

A powerhouse singer-songwriter who moves effortlessly between R&B and hip-hop, Heize released this track in November 2025.

It’s the title song of her 10th mini-album, “LOVE VIRUS Pt.1.” A breakup ballad that likens the pain love leaves behind and the memories that won’t fade to a “virus,” it conveys the feeling that the wounds multiply as time goes by.

Featuring I.M of MONSTA X, the interplay of their voices leaves an ineffable afterglow.

Here, Heize’s sorrow-tinged vocals and I.M’s hard-edged nuance strike a striking contrast, wrapping a tangle of lingering attachment and resignation in supple R&B sonics.

It’s a song that quietly keeps you company on winter nights spent alone, or when you want to face the memory of a love you can’t forget.

NOT CUTE ANYMOREILLIT

ILLIT (아일릿) ‘NOT CUTE ANYMORE’ Official MV

ILLIT delivered a declaration that “cute isn’t the end of the story,” set to a breezy, reggae-tinged pop groove.

Debuting in 2024, the girl group made a dazzling start, racking up 12 music show wins with their title track “Magnetic.” Comprising Korean and Japanese members, they are signed to HYBE’s BELIFT LAB.

This track is the lead song from their first single album, released in November 2025, and under the concept “CUTE IS DEAD,” it sings of breaking free from a fixed image.

The springy rhythm and cool, nonchalant mood leave a strong impression, while the fleeting glimmers of delicacy create a superb contrast.

In December 2025, they clinched wins on KBS’s Music Bank and Show Champion.

It’s a song we highly recommend to anyone searching for their own sense of self.

FORMULAALPHA DRIVE ONE

ALPHA DRIVE ONE (알파드라이브원) FORMULA PERFORMANCE VIDEO

This is the pre-debut single from ALPHA DRIVE ONE, an eight-member boy group formed through the global audition program “BOYS II PLANET.” Released digitally in December 2025, it drew attention for being premiered on stage at the 2025 MAMA AWARDS even before their official debut.

Crafted by a team of top-tier creators including KENZIE, the track is a dance-pop tune characterized by explosive synths and a surging bassline.

It conveys a message of the eight members, each coming from different paths, uniting as one team to forge their own “official” and charge forward.

The easily repeatable hook and high-velocity arrangement perfectly embody the group’s concept of “swift momentum.” It’s the ideal song to crank up your energy or psych yourself up before taking on a challenge.

PSYCHOBABYMONSTER

BABYMONSTER – ‘PSYCHO’ M/V

An aggressive track from BABYMONSTER, the multinational girl group that debuted from YG Entertainment seven years after BLACKPINK.

It’s included on their album “WE GO UP,” released in October 2025.

The song seamlessly blends multiple genres—hip-hop, dance, and rock—with a powerful low end that drives the entire track.

The catchy hook is seriously addictive.

The music video, released in November of the same year, is a suspenseful piece themed around “nightmares,” delivering a gripping atmosphere where the boundary between dream and reality blurs.

It surpassed 100 million views in just about 14 days after release.

The tense beat and highly addictive melody intertwine, pulling you in more with every listen.

Highly recommended when you want an energetic song to lift your mood or to immerse yourself in an impactful performance!

Baby DONT Cry – ‘I DONT CARE’ MV

Baby DONT Cry is the first girl group launched by PSY’s P NATION.

Produced by (G)I-DLE’s Soyeon, they debuted in June 2025.

The four-member lineup includes Kumi and Mia from Japan, and their signature is a unique sound they call “Baby Rock.” This release, which dropped in November 2025, is a track that brilliantly fuses the power of a band sound with a danceable beat, delivering an irresistible rush as the guitars surge to the forefront.

It carries a strong message about not being swayed by others’ opinions and forging your own path, making you feel encouraged every time you listen.

It’s the perfect song for moments when you want to shake off doubt and move forward, or when you’re about to take on something new.
