It fully showcases the group’s fresh appeal as they make a new start following member changes.
The track stands out for its addictive hook and vocals that weave delicate emotion into innocent cuteness.
The music video—where the members face themselves in a dreamlike, fantastical world—offers plenty of visual delight.
The “fishing dance,” which mimics casting and reeling a rod, also became a hot topic among fans worldwide on TikTok.

May the TENDERNESS be with you! (feat. KARINA of aespa)JANNABI
Jannabi, a skilled Korean indie rock band, will release a collaborative track with Karina from K‑pop group aespa in April 2025.
Featured on the album “Sound of Music Pt.1,” the song beautifully blends a grand orchestral arrangement with Karina’s clear, airy vocals.
It unfolds a world full of warmth and love, resulting in a heartwarming piece that also showcases Jannabi’s signature retro flair.
It seems to have captivated fans at their solo concert “All the Boys and Girls 2025,” held at Jamsil Arena in Seoul.
It’s a perfect song for a quiet night with someone special—or whenever your heart needs a little healing.
Countdown!TWS
Packed with TWS’s charm, this refreshing track weaves energetic drums with polished synths.
Included on the April 2025 mini album “TRY WITH US,” it carries a message that recalls those youthful moments that shone precisely because they were reckless.
International songwriters like Matthew Tishler and Grayson DeWolfe took part in the production, bringing a global sound to the music.
From April 29 to May 4, TWS became the first 5th‑generation boy group to achieve a six‑trophy “grand slam” across major music shows.
It’s the perfect song for when you need the courage to take on a challenge or want an uplifting listen with friends.

It blends pop and EDM to perfection, delivering a powerful, stylish sound that feels effortlessly satisfying.
The members’ vocals shine as each showcases her unique color.
The music video—where glamorous, high-energy scenes intersect with a dreamlike world—is a must-see.
Released on April 15, 2025, the song earned the group their first-ever win on the music show SHOW CHAMPION on the 23rd of the same month.

The lyrics, filled with the sweet-and-sour emotions of youth, are equally captivating.

PerADYA
A feel-good medium-tempo track with a positive message that really resonates.
It’s the debut song by ADYA, the first girl group to debut from Starting House Entertainment, led by Lim Young-woong, who has worked with PENTAGON and (G)I-DLE.
The build-up toward the chorus and the contrast with the rap-style hook are fantastic and totally uplifting! The lyrics center on “perfection” as a key theme, singing about living true to oneself.
Even with a confidence concept, expressing it with a laid-back vibe like in “Per” is smart and super cool.
