Hearts2Hearts Celebrate 1st Anniversary With Explosive Growth — “We’ll Become Artists Fans Can Be Proud Of”

Rising K-pop girl group Hearts2Hearts is marking its first debut anniversary with record-breaking momentum, from rookie grand slams to viral chart success and sold-out fan events.

A Rookie Year That Rewrote the Rules

Since debuting on February 24, 2025 with the dreamy and mysterious “The Chase,” the group has quickly built a strong identity through tracks like:

• the bright and energetic “STYLE”
• the cool and chic “FOCUS”

Known for their large-member knife-sharp synchronized performances, Hearts2Hearts captured global attention and went on to win nine Rookie of the Year trophies, the most among 2025 debut artists.

First Fan Meeting Sold Out — Even With Limited View Seats

The group’s first fan meeting, held at Olympic Hall in Seoul (Feb 21–22), sold out completely including restricted-view seats proving their rapidly growing fandom.

For the members, it became one of the most unforgettable moments of their first year.

“It was so emotional that it felt like a dream. I was happy we could get closer to our fans,” the members shared.

“RUDE!” Becomes Their Fastest-Rising Hit

Released on February 20, their new single “RUDE!” is already showing explosive results:

• 10 million MV views in about a day
• over 27 million views shortly after
• Melon TOP100 peak at No.8

The track marks a bold transformation, highlighting stronger expressions, sharper performance details, and what the group calls “a stage where every part feels like a killing point.”

The Signature Hearts2Hearts Style

According to the members, their defining charm lies in the contrast between:

Confidence on stage and honest, natural chemistry off stage.

With eight members bringing different colors together, their teamwork and energy have become a core reason for their popularity.

From SMTOWN Stages to Self-Produced Content

Among the most meaningful experiences of their rookie year:

• performing on the SMTOWN LIVE 2025 tour alongside senior artists
• their first mini-album showcase
• self-content like Girls’ Night, where fans saw their most genuine personalities

The group plans to expand into more talk-based and activity-driven content in the future.

New Goals for Year Two

After achieving their rookie sweep, Hearts2Hearts now has bigger ambitions:

• music chart No.1
• meeting more global fans
• showing clear growth in both performance and sound
• staying healthy and active together as a full team

Above all, they shared one promise:“We’ll become a group our fans can always be proud of.”

A Team Built on Long-Term Bonds

The anniversary also became a moment for the members to reflect on their journey from trainees to artists, repeatedly emphasizing that their biggest strength is having each other.

With their fandom S2U by their side, Hearts2Hearts is entering its second year not just as a successful rookie group but as one of the fastest-rising new names in K-pop.
