Source Music Publish GFRIEND Comeback Concert + Album in 2025

On January 16, 2025—exactly 10 years since their debut—GFRIEND will mark a milestone that many Kpop fans thought was impossible: a grand anniversary comeback.

It’s been a wild ride since GFRIEND first made their mark in the industry with their debut album “Season of Glass” back in 2015. Their unforgettable music and impressive performance had made GFRIEND skyrocketed with their “powerful innocence” concept.

Not only with the blend of youthful energy with mature, sophisticated sounds, GFRIEND was also famous for the members’ flawless sync in vocal and dance, making them one of the most phenomenal 3rd generation Kpop groups.

That is why when GFRIEND suddenly disbanded in May 2021, fans were incredibly heartbroken. And the heartbreak got even worse when the disbandment was fueled with controversial rumors due to HYBE’s acquisition.

Still, many are determined to keep on waiting for a possible reunion, and it seems their wishes are finally being granted.

At midnight on December 2, Source Music revealed GFRIEND special anniversary concert, titled “Season of Memories,” taking place on January 18 to 19, 2025, at the Olympic Hall. Soon enough, you will be able to hear all your favorite GFRIEND hits and relive the moments that defined the group’s legacy.

Not only that, but GFRIEND will also release a special 2025 comeback album to commemorate this incredible milestone: a pre-release track on January 6, followed by the full album on January 13, 2025.

It is undoubtedly going to be a historic moment for all Kpop fans!

An Exit Strategy and Salvation for Source Music

Meanwhile, what makes it more interesting is that GFRIEND upcoming comeback in 2025 will ingeniously become the exit strategy and salvation for Source Music.

As the company now houses the rising group LE SSERAFIM, a series of controversies has shaken the public’s perception of the company. With various allegations revolving on LE SSERAFIM’s numerous issues and conflicts with Min Heejin, the company has been in an extremely difficult situation. Therefore, Source Music has been desperately looking for a way out.

Just when Source Music needed a strong, reliable anchor to steady the ship, a new trend from older-generation Kpop groups’ reunion has been gaining massive attention: Girls’ Generation, 2PM, BIGBANG, and 2NE1.

And so, what better idea than reuniting the scattered GFRIEND members to quench the thirst from the group’s longing fans, BUDDY? After all, it is no secret that GFRIEND’s music holds a very special place in Kpop history and fans’ hearts.
