Hearts2Hearts
The octet recently made the NME 100, NME’s 2026 essential emerging artists list, earning praise for their “nostalgic yet fresh and propulsive” sound. “It may still be rookie season but for these girls, the crown is already starting to fit”. Furthermore, ‘FOCUS’ also made The FADER’s Best Songs of 2025 and DAZED’s Best K-pop of 2025 lists.
All eyes are on Hearts2Hearts as they continue to build their distinct music universe through a diverse range of releases, which include the mysterious and dream-like ‘The Chase’, the bubbly disco-house ‘STYLE’ (which made NME’s Best K-pop Songs of 2025), and five-track debut mini album ‘FOCUS’ (Billboard’s Best K-pop Albums of 2025 list).
With an open-hearted approach to pop and undeniable on-stage charisma, it’s clear to see why Hearts2Hearts – made up of JIWOO, CARMEN, YUHA, STELLA, JUUN, A-NA, IAN and YE-ON – are the K-pop rising stars to watch.
